I'm dealing with drooling for the past few months and I've heard it might be from worms in the stomach. I've had worm issues before, so I'm concerned this might be related. How can I put an end to this problem once and for all? Also, I've noticed a big gain in weight over the past couple of years. Could these be connected? What should I do?

Drooling may be related to various causes, and its important to get an accurate diagnosis from a healthcare provider. Worm infestations are treatable with medications, but they are unlikely to be the direct cause of drooling. For weight gain, a combination of dietary changes, physical activity, and medical consultation is necessary to manage the condition effectively.

Another surgical approach to treating SMA syndrome is a duodenojejunostomy, in which the compressed portion of the duodenum is released and an anastomosis is created between the duodenum and jejunum anterior to the superior mesenteric artery. This is the classic approach to SMA syndrome.

I'm a bit worried because I just got my liver function tests back, and it says my SGPT level is 111.4 and SGOT level is 90.17. Should I be concerned about these numbers? Is there something serious going on?
Your SGPT and SGOT levels are elevated, but this doesnt necessarily point to a serious issue. It's important to investigate the cause with your doctor. Early detection and lifestyle changes can often help manage and reverse mild liver dysfunction.
