Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Doctor,My fasting suger is in the range of 120 to 140 & PP Suger is 125 to 135 range from last one year. i have done my LFT yesterday and found SGOT 72 Protein total 6.24, Globulin 1.89 Bilrubin 2.06 & bilrubin conjonjugated 1.82. Is is worrying stage what medication to improve liver function.
Usually ALT or AST values higher than "two times the upper normal limit", is considered abnormal (in some countries, ALT or AST values of more than 100 are considered abnormal). Value of AST or ALT greater than 85 or above maybe investigated further. Viral Hepatitis, Alcohol ingestion and obesity are common causes of liver disease. HBV and HCV maybe ruled out. Lipid profile may be tested.
Advice:
- abstinence from "Alcohol" - decreased oil consumption (oily food) - NO red meat- green vegetables should be ingested daily - use lemon juice (lemonade) once in a day - reduce weight if overweight/obese
Hope I have answered your query. Any further questions are welcome.
Wish you good health.
Regards, Dr Tayyab Malik
