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, I can understand your logistic concerns , but can you please tell me what problem do you have that you have consulted a doctor (pain in the abdomen?, jaundice?, itching all over your body?, pale coloured stools?, loss of wt?, along with loss of appetite? ) If you have any of these ,always it's better to rule out if you have any obstruction either within the liver or outside the liver, and hence your doctor has advised you to get an USG done to know if any obstruction is present along with Alkaline phosphatase (Alp) levels. Hope I could help you. Thank you.
