Brief Answer:
could be hepatitis A infection. need the complete LFT report..
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I've read you query and understood your problem.
What you are having is hyperbilirubinemia as you know obviously.
Good thing is that you have tested negative for hep B and C. In that case it looks more like as Hepatitis A infection as it's more common in XXXXXXX
It spreads by drinking contaminated water containing Hepatitis A virus.
First thing you should do is drink water from clean and known source only. Drink boiled water if possible. Also ask your family members to do the same as you have got it, then can also get it.
Meanwhile send me/Upload your all reports you have done till now including full LFT and CBC if you have done it. Will go through it once for my knowledge so I shouldn't miss out anything else.
Will advice you further course after I see the reports.
Awaiting your reply.
Thank you
