Brief Answer:
You have a liver condition which is treatable

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in details.
The reports indicate a possible infective condition involving the liver. The size of liver is enlarged with visible changes in appearance. The liver function tests SGOP, SGPT are also on the higher side. Bilirubin levels are also increased suggesting jaundice. These findings may correlate with an infection of the liver such as hepatitis A which is a common water borne viral infection. This must be discussed with your doctor and treatment involves medications to protect the liver and taking hygienic low oil diet for few weeks.

Brief Answer:
Gall bladder will get back to normal

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.

I suggest that you stop taking alcohol for some days as long your liver function is abnormal. Alcohol causes liver damage when it becomes an addiction. If you take alcohol regularly then please seek help from a de addiction clinic or a psychiatrist. The gall bladder is showing problems because of the liver infection and once the liver infection is controlled, the gall bladder will get back to normal. Treatment involves controlling alcohol use, taking liver protective medications as given by your doctor. As mentioned above low oil is recommended.

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Dr.Vivek
