Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
Thanks for asking us,
You are having most likely viral hepatitis, you have not mentioned type.I don't know if is tested or not hepatitis A & E are infective and are self limiting diseases, but Hepatitis B & C can be chronic also so it is better to test and know which type of hepatitis.
If your bilirubin and liver enzymes are reducing which indicate recovery is taking place.
Diet in hepatitis if there are no vomiting than normal nutritious diet should be taken,few suggestion are take care of water it should be safe boiled and cooled is simple,Whole grain cereals,Brown rice,Vegetables, (potatoes in moderation Homemade Vegetable Soup)
Beans, all kinds,Fresh fruit in moderation Lemonade made with fresh lemons,Homemade Vegetable Soup.this is a great healthy drink. I add a banana and 1/2 cup unsweetened apple juice.
There is no need to take lot of sugarcane juice or rasgulla it is simple sugar puts lot of load on liver.
Please continue treatment as per your doctor and hope you will recover soon.
Take care.
Good Luck.
