I recently had my bilirubin levels checked, and I'm a bit worried because my total bilirubin is at 2.5. My direct bilirubin seems fine, but it's my indirect bilirubin that's high at 2.2. Everything else like ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, albumin, globulin, and the AG ratio is normal. I had jaundice about four months ago, and I'm wondering if this could be related. What could be causing this high indirect bilirubin, and is there anything I can do to bring it down? Would really appreciate some advice.

I'm looking at my lab report and it's showing my SGPT level is at 136, while the normal range is between 21 and 72. My SGOT level is at 69, but the normal range should be between 17 and 59. Should I be worried about this? Also, what would be the treatment for these levels?

Elevated SGPT and SGOT levels indicate liver damage or inflammation. To address this, you can take Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). Additionally, you can take Silymarin to support liver function. It is important to avoid alcohol and fatty foods, and maintain a healthy lifestyle to help improve your liver health. Regular follow-up with your doctor is recommended to monitor your progress.

I'm feeling really uncomfortable after recovering from COVID. I've got this ongoing gastric issue, and I'm experiencing pain on the right side under my ribs. There's some kind of stomach disorder going on, and I also feel this lower abdomen pain in the mornings. Thankfully, it does ease up after a bowel movement, but it's concerning. What might be causing all this, and is there something specific I should be doing to feel better?
