Chronic Gastritis
Despite medical management with proton pump inhibitors, analgesics, and supportive medications, the abdominal pain persisted. Investigations including CECT abdomen, abdominal ultrasonography, and X-ray revealed no significant abnormalities. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy performed in February 2026 showed antral gastritis with a negative rapid urease test. Due to ongoing symptoms, repeat endoscopy with biopsy was conducted in April 2026, which revealed Grade III lower esophageal sphincter, H. pylori–associated gastritis. I was subsequently treated with H. pylori eradication therapy(HP KIT) and continued ppi's for 4 more weeks. But symptoms still persist.
Elevated LFT
Hello Doctor, my father had an angioplasty on 7th Jan 2026. His latest blood report shows an elevated GGT (154) and ALT (69). I have attached the Ultrasound, and Fibroscan reports. He is currently taking Ecosprin 75, Prasudoc 10, Tazloc 20, Orofer XT, and Nikoran 5 in the morning; and Atorva 20, Concor 2.5, and Nikoran 5 at night. He also finished a 12-week course of Uprise 60K recently. Could the high GGT be due to the Atorva, his daily intake of homemade paneer, or the Vitamin D? Please let us know how we can bring these levels down safely. Blood Test- AST-47 ALT-69 GGT- 154 Alkaline Phosphatase- 156 PROTHROMBIN TIME (PT) - 14.5 INTERNATIONAL NORMALIZED RATIO (INR) - 1.09 MEAN PROTHROMBIN TIME OF CONTROL PLASMA (MNPT) - 13.50 HEPATITIS C ANTIBODIES - 0.05 HEPATITIS B SURFACE ANTIGEN - 0.38
