noted history of hepatitis, jaundice, elevated liver function tests and weight loss. your signs and symptomatologies are probably secondary to your unresolved infection. other hepaticopancreaticobiliary tree pathology must also be ruled-out, such as obstructive causes (like gallstones, tumor lesions, etc.). it is best if you do a follow-up consult with your doctor, preferably a gastroenterologist, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. diagnostics (such as ultrasound, ct-scan, tumor markers, etc.) and management (medical and/or surgical if indications are found) will be directed accordingly. i do not disagree but i also personally do not recommend intake of supplements which are not FDA approved, and no proven indication of use for your condition. majority of these pass thru your liver for metabolism and kidneys for clearance. they may cause more harm than help. yes, you can resume your daily exercises as tolerated, but making sure that you are also provided with good nutrition. low fat low salt diet is also recommended.
hope this helps.
good day!!
