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'm kind of worried because, for the last couple of days, every time I go to the bathroom, there's been a lot of mucus in my stool. I'm not sure what's going on. Can you tell me if this is something I should be concerned about?
This could be a sign of inflammation in your intestines. I recommend taking a probiotic like "Align" once a day to help restore the balance of good bacteria in your gut. Additionally, you can try taking an anti-inflammatory medication like Mesalamine to reduce inflammation. Make sure to stay hydrated and eat a diet high in fiber to help with bowel movements. If the symptoms persist, consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.

I've been a bit worried since I recently had some blood work done. My total bilirubin was 1.77, so I took Livopill for 10 days, and my repeated test showed total bilirubin at 1.62, with DB at 0.63 and IDB at 0.99. The other results were total protein 7.6, serum albumin 4.9, globulin 2.7, AG ratio 1.8, SGOT 24, SGPT 25, alkaline phosphatase 92, GGTP 12, and my HBsAg was 0.24. Now, I've been told to take Ensules Plus for a month, but I feel this discomfort or pain just below my right rib. Should I be thinking about taking any other medication or is the pain something to worry about? Feeling a bit unsure about all this.
Your liver function tests show mild bilirubin elevation and normal liver enzymes, and the HbsAg result suggests you're not infected with hepatitis B; considering your symptoms and test results, consult your doctor about adding a liver protective supplement like silymarin or ursodeoxycholic acid to Ensules Plus, and for the rib pain, consider adding an antacid or acid reducer like omeprazole or ranitidine to alleviate discomfort, but only under medical guidance.
