Hello,
jnanprakashlall62,
Thank you for contacting HCM with your quiery.
In Sept.2012 ,you say you had jaundice and sounds like Hepatitis
of some sort, either Type A, B or C. Usually Type-A hepatitis does
not go into a chronic phase. The other two can. Your bilirubin level
has come down to normal and SGPT and SGOT are still elevated but
seem to be improving. Now you are told about fatty liver. I am not
sure if the doctors told you what grade it was. I have a feeling it is
probably mild. At this stage , it can reverse back to normal.
Do not drink alcohol and do not take any medications that might have
affect on the liver. These include NSAIDS such as Naproxen, Ibuprofen etc.
Also certain antibiotics belonging to the sulfa or tertacycline family.
You need to avoid highly fatty, greasy foods and fried foods also. You can
take supplemental protein drinks. I also recommend Vit-C 1000 mg. daily,
Vit-E 800 i.u. daily and a good Super B-Complex vitamin pill daily.
It is O.K. to excercise and play.
Check your enzyme levels every 4 weeks. SGPT will take longer to come
down than SGOT. Don't worry. If you are slightly overweight , try to cut back
on calories and try to lose some weight. This will also help your fatty liver
to return back to normal.
I wish you the very best.

Hi and welcome to HCM.
These are severe elevated LFT. The most common liver disorder is fatty liver which can be found in healthy people, but usually is resulting from elevated blood lipids, overweight and elevated blood sugar. YOu should treat it in the beginning by changing dieatary and lifestyle habbits. Do exercise, avoid alcohol,smoking, fats,fast food and carbonated drinks. Eat more fruit and vegetables, boiled meat and follow some of hepatoprotective diets. Findings usually improves on such measures. If not, then some medicines can be presribed, but I suggest to go step by step. If you dont have any srious symptoms then this is just slight and reversible liver damage.
Wish you good health.
