Hi,

Based on details you are in the recovery phase of viral hepatitis E.

SGPT value is already in normal range and SGOT will come to normal range by few days ( normal value is 0- 35u/L).

Restrict protein and fats in diet.

I hope this helps you.

Regards

Hello,

You have had an excellent recovery judging by your SGOT and SGPT levels.
Your appetite must have improved by now. Try restricting the amount of protein or fats you eat as that stresses the liver (such as seafood, meats etc).

The SGOT will take another month to get into the normal range, so get your results checked in another 4 weeks. Frequent checking does not help as it stresses you - like the 146 becoming 174.
Avoid NSAIDs and aspirin as pain killers. Take paracetamol only if you need to.

Best Wishes.
