How Can Auto Immune Hepatitis With Feet Swelling Be Treated?
Thanks for enquiring about my health. I am sorry for reverting back to you. As I told you I am suffering from auto immune hepatitis for more than a year. I enclose two repoprts one being the latest one for you to peruse and suggest me the course of treatment. Lately, I have developed swelling on my feet and doctors say that it is due to protein deficiency. I am taking protein supplements. The liver parameters are very high and as I am told that as billi rubin level decreases other parameters would also decrease. I await your reply.
Noted you have autoimmune hepatitis. Do you have taken any immunosuppresive drug??
You are not improving. So after consulting doctor corticosteroid or/and azathioprine like drug should started.... With these drugs you will benefit ... So consult doc for starting it...
For swelling diuretic also can be taken if not decreasing.... Take low salt diet.
Low fat diet taken with more fruits.... Avoid alcohol and smoking if habit....
Take care.... Dr.Parth
