What Should I Do If My GGT And Cholesterol Levels Are High Despite Taking Rozucor For 5 Years?

Hello, Your GGT is indicative of liver stress or damage, even though SGPT, SGOT, and bilirubin are normal. GGT commonly gets elevated due to alcohol intake, fatty liver, certain medications, or metabolic conditions. Quit taking alcohol or addictions if any. Get a liver ultrasound, repeat liver function tests, etc., it may help understand the elevated GGT. Cholesterol and LDL are significantly elevated and increase cardiovascular risk. Triglycerides is borderline high. Therefore, switch to healthy lifestyle. Switch to boiled food. take lean meat with a dash of olive oil, well cooked whole cereals, small fish, berries, fruits, veggies, nuts, etc. Avoid taking oily food, fried food, trans fat, full fat dairy products, refined flour, red meat, etc. Exercise regularly even brisk walking 30 minutes a day will help lower cholesterol and triglyceride level. Limit alcohol, which can raise GGT and triglycerides. Increase fiber intake (vegetables, oats, legumes). Strict diet control, walking and exercises will help the elevated lipid profile to come to normal but it will take time since its almost 5 years (chronic). Continue to take your prescribed medicines and do not lose hope. Have patience. Thyroid levels should be monitored regularly, as hypothyroidism can worsen cholesterol. If obese lose weight. Get connected to a nutritionist and follow the food chart strictly. Contact a physical therapist, exercising under a physical therapist will be more helpful. Get liver function tests, lipid profile, blood sugar (R & PP) done every 50 days to see if there is improvement. Stay connected to your cardiologist for heart health. Take care.
