Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Your LFT values and its interpretation
1. Bilirubin : Direct - 0.25 (0-0.2) Mild Elevation (insignificant)
2. Billirubin : Total - 0.80 (0-1.0) Normal
3. Bilirubin (Indirect) - 0.55 (0-1.0) Normal
4. SGOT - 71.10 (0-35) Elevated
5. SGPT - 117 (0-35) Elevated
6. Alkaline Phosphatase - 98.80 (30-120) Normal
7. GGT - 150 (0-30) Elevated
8. Protein(Total) - 8.83 (6-8) Normal (Though values shows mild elevation)
9. Albumin - Serum - 5.10 (4-6) Normal
10.Serum Albumin/Globulin Ratio - 1.37 (1.7-2.2) Normal
Interpretation
Taking into consideration that you are consuming alcohol daily and with the reports showing elevation in the liver enzymes I am of the opinion that it could be Alcohol Induced Hepatitis.
Following these measures will help you:
1. Cut down or avoid alcohol intake.
2. Avoid high fat & protein diet till the liver functions return to normal.
3. Consume diet having simple carbohydrates like sugarcane juice, Coconut water etc
4. Take Liver-protective syrup like Liv-52 after consulting with your doctor.
5. Repeat Liver Function Tests after 12 weeks.
6. Always drink plenty of fresh water to flush toxins out of your body.
I hope my answer has been adequate and informative. If you have any follow up queries I will be available to answer them.
Regards.
