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 allI've been experiencing this sharp stabbing pain under my right rib for about a week now. It really hurts when I move, laugh, or take deep breaths. The only thing that somewhat helps is Advil, but the pain is still there, just less intense. I've tried waiting it out, but it doesn't seem to go away, and I can't lay down on either side because it hurts. I'm really not sure what's going on, and I'm a bit worried. Any ideas on what this could be?

What's going on with my liver function test results? I just got them back and my bilirubin levels are elevatedtotal is at 1.71, direct is 0.32, and indirect is 1.39. I've also been having this nagging pain on the right side of my lower abdomen, especially after eating a heavy meal. It's been like this for about a month. Should I be worried? Do I need any meds or more tests?

I've got some test results that I'm a bit worried about. My SGPT levels are sitting at 106, and my SGOT is 38. The direct bilirubin came back at 0.34. I'm wondering if these numbers mean I should get tested for jaundice or something else. Also, are there any ways I can bring these elevated levels down?
Altered Liver function , typically the liver enzymes dearrangement is seen in many conditions.This mostly happen if there is any other infective pathology already present in the body. SGPT SGOT also raised in Alcoholic non Alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD). A through evaluation needed which includes a Ultrasound of abdomen, Hepatic viral profile ( Hepatitis B and C typically). Get evaluated and this is reversible.
