I'm really concerned because my sgpt, sgot, and ggt numbers are pretty high and above normal levels. Plus, I noticed my leukocyte count is also elevated. Can you help me understand what this might mean?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Having elevated SGPT, SGOT, and GGT levels along with increased leukocyte count can indicate liver and inflammatory issues. To address this, you can consider taking medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid to support liver function and reduce liver enzyme levels. Additionally, Ibuprofen can help with inflammation and leukocyte count. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm having trouble with hard stools. I ate some bread and pizza, and since then, I've been dealing with chronic constipation. It kinda feels like there's something really stuck in my colon. Can you suggest a practical and lasting solution for this?
To relieve your constipation and prevent it from becoming a long-term issue, focus on: Increasing fiber (fruits, vegetables, whole grains). Drinking more water. Exercising regularly. Avoiding processed foods that can contribute to constipation. Trying natural laxatives or gentle over-the-counter remedies if necessary. If your symptoms persist or worsen, dont hesitate to reach out to a doctor

I'm experiencing belching on an empty stomach and feeling nauseous really early in the morning, around 4 a.m., usually when I'm sleeping. Plus, I've been having loose stools about once a week, though they're not super liquidy. Seven months back, I had an endoscopy that showed gastritis in my stomach's antrum and bile stasis, but it wasnt H. pylori. An ultrasound also showed multiple small peripheral follicles in both ovaries. I'm really scared that this could be something serious, like cancer. Can you help me figure out if I should be worried?
cancer is highly unlikely from your symptoms. drink good amount of water

I'm really worried because for the last couple of weeks, I've been experiencing this burning sensation and pain right in the middle of my chest, and I'm also feeling pain in my right shoulder and just below it. My ECG and troponin levels are completely normal, so I'm not sure what else it could be. I'm taking medication for acid reflux, but I'm still feeling pain and a sense of fullness in my chest. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
From your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In addition to the medication you are already taking for acid reflux, I recommend adding a proton pump inhibitor such as omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast to help further reduce stomach acid production and alleviate your symptoms. You can also consider taking an antacid like Tums as needed for immediate relief of heartburn. It's important to avoid trigger foods that may worsen your symptoms, such as spicy or acidic foods, caffeine, and alcohol. Additionally, elevating the head of your bed while sleeping and avoiding lying down right after meals can also help. If your symptoms persist despite these measures, further evaluation by a gastroenterologist may be necessary.
