Hello, Welcome to HCM, I have gone through your history and understand your concern. 1.Usually antibiotics is advised for a minimum of 7 days 2.You can take these Vitamin B complex, as it will replenish your nutrition 3.You need to avoid high protein diet, as the metabolism of the protein occurs in the liver. The liver should not be over burden for at least 20 days. Even though fish has PUFA and MUFA, the fried items should be avoided. Thank you.
