Metabolic Disorder
3 months back doctor has identified liver inflammation for 7 months baby with Serum Alt and AST values more than 400 and infection in the left kidney and also with small size of the kidney. She was also lactose intolerant. Doctor suspected it to be metabolic disorder. She is on soya milk post that in the last 3 months. Not sure if this has helped in reducing the inflammation levels. Now after 3 months her liver inflammation is down but kidney is still having infection. she on lactose free food. Are there any tests that can confirm if this is a metabolic disorder?
