intestine infection most likely , basic lab tests required are suggested .

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear
Welcome for follow up .
* Antiendomysial antibody IgG and tissue transgluaminase IgA are specific
markers for the Celiac disease of the intestine (gluten sensitive enteropathy )
* As per the narrated symptoms and USG findings , your case is not typical of
that , but your physician may have evaluated the need of the relevant
investigations keeping other parameters in the mind .
* For investigations , preparation is only to be remain empty stomach has to go
without taking anything by mouth for 10 hours .
Say patient can consume last liquids orally at 10 PM , then nil by mouth
and give blood , urine sample at 8 AM .
Hope this will help her for sure .

1. As per the test you have suggested, Can I get the LFT Liver function test done which will cover all right ,

Please advice
regards,
Sxxxx
follow up .
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX ,
Welcome for the follow up .
1. LFT is not covering everything needed for our case ( this includes only serum
bilirubin , SGPT , SGOT , albumin globulin ratio , HBSAg ) .
You have to undertake CBC , ESR , serum widal , FBS , urine microscopy
along with LFT .
2. Can consult in follow up with reports or Consultant Gastroenterology .
Always happy to assist you anytime .
Regards .
I am attaching the report of LFT, can you please guide me looking at the report, Is there Jaundice detected ?
Regards,
Sxxxx
you can`t stamp purely jaundice , it may be early sign/secondary to other .
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome for follow up with LFT reports .
* There is SGPT elevation , with negligible changes of SGOT and direct bilirubin .
This may be indicative of very early jaundice or secondary to some bacterial
or viral infection in the abdomen giving these changes .
