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.
hello sir/madam, actually i infected by jaundice due to infection of gall bladder and gall stones. my docor placed stunts for jaundice and again gall bladder removed with endoscopy surgery....
doctor give me diet list at the time of discharge.
some non-vegeterian items like chicken and fish was there in that list...
my friends and family members was said that never eat non-vegetarian items, fat food, chillis etc... CAN YOU TELL ME THE PERFECT DIET FOR JAUNDICE YYYY@YYYY
Hi, How are you? I am so sorry to hear all the symptoms you had and I am glad you have been successfully treated for it. In you case, the jaundice was due to stones blocking the bile duct and not due to any liver disease. So you do not need to be worried about taking a diet which will be easy on the liver. If the jaundice was due to liver disease, then usually a fat free diet would have been recommended. But since the jaundice in your case has been successfully treated by the stent and surgery, there is no need for you stick to any kind of diet, although in general avoiding excess fatty food is good for your general health. It does not matter if you are a vegetarian. The diet sheet is just a suggestion and not a rule. One other option would be to request the dietician at the hospital to provide you with a vegetarian diet sheet. I hope this helped and I hope you get better soon. Please do not hesitate to contact me for further clarifications
