Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have very high bilirubin level with extremely high level of SGOT and SGPT. It suggest hepatitis. It can be due to viral hepatitis or due to other cause like toxins. You should go for complete hepatitis test to search the cause. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Your bilirubin level is decreasing but it is still high and your liver has inflammation so right side abdominal discomfort is obvious. You should take fat free diet with high protein diet. Tab Liv 52 and ursocol tablets are useful. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
