I'm really concerned about some symptoms I've been experiencing lately. I've been feeling really fatigued, super sleepy, and I've had a few fevers now and then. I've also noticed some weight loss and hair loss, and I've been getting headaches. My ultrasound report says there's decreased echotexture of my liver, which they mentioned could be hepatitis. Could these symptoms all be related, and should I be worried about the possibility of hepatitis? What steps should I take next?

Based on your symptoms of fatigue, sleepiness, occasional fever, weight loss, hair loss, and headache, along with the ultrasound report showing decreased echotexture of the liver suggestive of hepatitis, this points to possible liver inflammation. I recommend further blood tests and a detailed evaluation to confirm the cause and guide treatment effectively.

View allSo I just got my full body check-up done at the health camp at work, and I'm 39, by the way. All my tests were pretty standard - blood tests and ECG and all that. The results seemed okay, but I noticed my alkaline phosphatase levels are high. The thing is, I feel fine and don't have any issues that I'm aware of. Could you tell me what symptoms might show up with high alkaline phosphatase?
A high alk phos level occurs when there is a blockage of flow in the biliary tract or a buildup of pressure in the liver--often caused by a gallstone or scarring in the bile ducts.

My mom has multiple gallstones with the biggest one at 15mm, and the doctor wants us to control her diabetes for 12 months before surgery. There's also a 43cm cyst in her right adnexa, but the doctor said removing it isn't urgent and could be too expensive to do along with the gallbladder surgery. He mentioned the cyst has a low chance of causing issues later. Should we still push to remove the cyst now or is it okay to leave it?
If the cyst is simple and asymptomatic, it’s okay to monitor it; focus on stabilizing diabetes first before combining surgeries.

I'm a bit concerned because for the past three days it feels like something's stuck in my chest. It all started after I felt like food was coming back up from my stomach into my food pipe one night. Since then, I've been burping a lot after meals and drinks. What could be going on?
That could be GERD, visit Gastroenterologist for appropriate treatment.
