View allI'm worried because my SGPT levels are high and I've been taking medication like Cirrosam 400, Obeticholic acid, Ursocol 300, and Evion for the past two months. The only one that seems to help is the Obeticholic acid. Interestingly, my lipid profile is normal and I've tested negative for Hepatitis B and C. My blood sugar levels are also within the normal range. On top of this, I've been dealing with hyperuricemia. Can you tell me how long it might take for my SGPT levels to get back to normal?

I've just found out my HBsAg levels are 4094.27 and it's reactive. I'm really worried about what this means for my health. Can you tell me how I can treat this and how long it might take? Is this something I'm going to have to deal with for the rest of my life? Any advice would be really appreciated.
You must continue to repeat relevant tests at regular intervals in order to determine the progression of your disease. Hepatitis B has no known cure, but can be managed with regular medication and lifestyle modifications.

So, I've noticed my face is getting darker or turning black, and I'm kind of worried. I've been diagnosed with PBC and have been on medication for liver function and taking vitamin tablets for about a month now. Could this change in my skin color be related to the meds or my liver issue? What might be causing this?
Darkening of your face could be related to changes in liver function due to primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), as it can affect skin pigmentation. Medications or vitamin imbalances might also play a role. I recommend discussing this with your doctor to adjust your treatment if needed.
