Suggest Remedy For Severe Diarrhea While Having Slightly Enlarged Liver

Hi, My name is XXXXX and my age is 27 Years. I started talking alcohol since 1 year and on average i drank atleast 5 units of alcohol per day.One day i have little pain in abdomen, right side and i went to doctor immediately. They performed ultra sound of my Abdomen and found that my Liver is slightly enlarged.(mild steatosis). My Liver Enzymes are completely Normal in range. My pancreas, portal vein, kidneys and others showed all normal. I am not taking any Alcohol since 1 week.I am working out in gym and having multivitamin and whey protein shakes.I searched and found 2 great supplements for Liver Milk Thsitle and LIV 52. Since 3 days, I am taking only LIV 52 ayurvedic medicine (2 tablets per day). I am suffering from severe Diarrhea since 2 days, after i had whey protein or after taking LIV 52. I need to go atleast 5 times a day and its completely liquid.(No blood in stool).They perfomed stool test and said that there are no bacteria or problems in stool. But I cannot digest anything. I am really afraid of my health situation. I never had these kind of problems, even when i am taking alcohol. I am surprised, why i am having problems after i stop taking alcohol. Kindly please advice me. Thank you very much.

Hi,

Okay, you’re young and obviously into sports. Important information. Hence, please stop drinking alcohol completely for at least 6 month and also stop taking all these supplements. Your liver needs a healthy NORMAL diet at a stable weight (no sudden changes!), and no stress from any side. Have your liver enzymes checked every six weeks. After a month of alcohol abstinence and a normal diet without ANY supplements all should return to normal. If not, see a hepatologist.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Alexander Davis, General & Family Physician
