Question 1

Sir, my name is Amit, I am 20 years old from Bihar. I recently got my blood test done, and some results are worrying me. The highlighted points are:
Bilirubin Total: 1.43 mg/dL
Bilirubin Indirect: 1.18 mg/dL
Total Protein: 9.06 g/dL
Albumin: 5.93 g/dL
Calcium Total: 10.80 mg/dL
Chloride: 99.40 mEq/L
Could you please explain what these values mean and if I need any treatment or further tests?

Question 3

Hello, I need an urgent consultation for my mother who is suffering from acute stomach pain. She is currently on sedatives prescribed by an emergency doctor at a nearby hospital. I have attached reports showing that she is suffering from pancreatitis, gallbladder inflammation, and liver issues. The doctor has advised admitting her as soon as possible. Since it is Diwali season, I am concerned about whether she will receive proper care in the hospital. I am considering admitting her tomorrow. Please advise on the severity of her condition and whether it is safe to wait until tomorrow? Her LFT report shows SGPT 169, SGOT 186, alkaline phosphatase 150, and GGT 117, all significantly above normal range. I am looking forward to your suggestion. Thank you.

My recent liver profile test shows a high GGT level, while all other parameters, including SGOT and SGPT, are within normal limits.

Elevated GGT may reflect alcohol use, medications, or liver stress. If SGOT/SGPT are normal and you do not drink, it may not be serious but monitor over time.
