Liver Function Test
Hi, I had Typhoid for 1 month in February this year. I was cured till 1 March but weakness was still there and my SGPT level was 117.2 U/L.
Today, I went for Liver Function Test and results are attached.
Whenever, I eat more fatty food, I feel myself full, I got weakness or pain in legs. And in some cases, I get pain in areas like right chest or lower back (I think it's because of gas buildup). I suspect it's because Liver still not fully recovered after typhoid that's why Liver unable to digest fats.
I wanna also know, if i can take whey protein supplement and can i workout? Can i take multivitamins? Can i take fish oil? What should i avoid? What should i eat?

Liver enzymes levels are lower than earlier levels .You are on recovery stage , however do a ultrasound scan of abdomen to rule out fatty liver.
Avoid fatty foods , alcohol consumption ,use fresh fruits and vegetables.Do consider regular exercise for 30 minutes a day

Your report shows Liver function tests in the recovery phase.
You should not forget about your lifestyle modifications which are an essential part of the treatment for hyperacidity and dyspepsia.
Go slow on fish oil. In any case it is not your staple diet.
You should start with a walk in the morning and evening. Slowly you can start your workout.

Good evening Manish, except the liver enzymes sgot,sgpt,alp production and excretion defect, remaining liver function is normal.As u have mentioned,your sgpt level has improved compared to march which is a sign of recovery from the effect of typhoid your liver has faced.
Regarding the diet and physical exercise,kindly give your body enough rest to recover.Try consuming more veggies and avoid meat and junk so that you cand avoid the free radical injury to ur organs.
