Question 1

Recent blood tests of my mother show some abnormal results, including RBC count of 5.22x1000000/microlitre, platelet count of 134x10000/microlitre (low), PDW of 14.7, fasting glucose of 114.5 mg/dL, ALT (SGPT) of 103.76 U/L (high), and AST (SGOT) of 50.73 U/L (high). She has been experiencing weakness in certain parts of her body, sweating on one side, and a feeling of inner restlessness. She is currently on medications for blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol, but has not received a clear diagnosis. Could you please advise on the possible cause of her symptoms and abnormal lab results, the course of treatment, and which specialist doctor she should consult next?

Question 2

I have a blood test scheduled for elevated ALT liver enzyme on the 9th. I cannot take pain medications. I have come down with a bad cold and am experiencing severe sinus pressure. Can I take Pseudoephedrine, Allegra D, or Mucinex D without affecting my blood test results?

Question 3

Hi, Please go through my report. I am having grade 1 fatty liver and polycystic cysts in ovaries. Please suggest what to do?

My current blood report shows a liver infection, and I have started the prescribed medication as per the doctor advice. However, I am still experiencing weakness and body pain. When I wake up, I feel pain in my hands and legs.

Weakness and pain can continue during liver recovery. Keep taking your medicines, eat light food, and stay hydrated. Visit your doctor for a follow up and check liver recovery progress. Get checked Vitamin D levels also.
