Question 1

I have fatty liver for the last 6 months and my skin has darkened. When I touch below the belly button, it gives me pain. I also have a problem emptying bowels. An abdominal USG gave results of fatty infiltration and kidney stones of very small size.

Question 2

I have been experiencing regular abdominal pain on both sides. I got a blood test, and my results are as follows:
SGOT: 60.9 U/L
SGPT: 88.3 U/L
Alkaline phosphatase: 179.6 U/L
GGT: 187.7 U/L
Should I be worried about these results? Do they indicate any serious condition?

Question 3

My 16 year old son has been suffering from high fever (104F) and headache for the past 6 days. Yesterday we consulted a doctor. His CBC and urine reports are normal. Malaria and typhoid tests are negative. Platelet count is 1.75 lakhs, SGOT is 65, and SGPT is 70.
The doctor prescribed Dolo 650 (three times a day) and Mahacef Plus (twice a day). The fever temporarily decreases after Dolo but rises back to 104F after 4 hours.
What could be the reason for the persistent high fever and the increased SGOT and SGPT? What should be done next?

Why is alkaline phosphatase elevated in prostate cancer?

When prostate cancer or another cancer moves to the bones, bone, and tissue in the cancerous areas break down and release increased levels of alkaline phosphatase into the bloodstream.
