Question 1

Hello my father is infected with covid and has mild symptoms. The doctors said his blood report is ok but mentioned he has liver inflammation and advised admission. Please give directions?

Question 2

I received my blood test report. My cholesterol was high at 211, LDL was 153, HDL was 36, vitamin D was less than 10.5 (normal 75 to 110), and B12 was 320. I was given 60k vitamin D capsules weekly. After the third week, I started experiencing dizziness and discomfort on the right side of my abdomen. My liver and kidney panel were normal, but ALT was 71 (normal 30 to 65). My bowel movements are fine, but I have bloating most of the time, and my abdomen feels tight like a tyre, which is very uncomfortable. I am worried, but my physician said my liver and kidneys are fine and it may be just gas. He asked me to continue the vitamin D tablets and take an antacid in the morning. What should I do? Can I take magnesium supplements too, as I read that vitamin D requires magnesium? My right knee hurts a lot while coming down the stairs, and I also have muscle cramps. My major issue is lower abdomen bloating and dull pain below the lower ribs on the right side.

Question 3

I have been experiencing itching on the inner palms for the past 3 days. I do not have diabetes or high cholesterol. I take Atenolol and Amlodipine daily and have no other health issues. I also maintain daily walking and regular activities.

My ALT (SGPT) level is 131 in my lab report. Can you please suggest possible reasons for this and what should be done?

ALT of 131 suggests liver inflammation. Common causes include fatty liver, alcohol, hepatitis, or medication side effects. Avoid alcohol, oily foods. Consider liver ultrasound and LFT monitoring.
