Hi,

The values are borderline raised values and right now you should plan to bring them down by regular excercise and diet control(like cutting down on oily food and high carbohydrate diet and excessive sweetners and icecreams and late night eating or junk eating)
All these stuff should be enough to help you right now.
Your polymorphs seem to be in a normal range,are you having any problem like fever or any other thing.

Patient asked followup Question: 12 years ago

Thanks doctor. I don't have fever. After dieting and exercise, when should I do the test again ? Usually, I do it once a year. How often should I do the test, now onwards?.

Hi,

You may get the test done after 4-6 months from now to actually see the results,otherwise it is fine that you are getting your tests done on an annual basis.

Hello, I see that you are worried regarding your cholesterol levels and your sgot levels. To start up I would like to tell you that amongst the common causes of raised sgot level is fatty liver commonly seen in alcoholics and people who are obese or overweight. Your sgot levels are not alarmingly high and do not worry about them, they should come down as you start reducing your ldl levels (cholesterol levels) To reduce cholesterol initially you should limit your alcohol intake to about 120 ...

Hi, Most probably you are suffering from fatty liver changes. Discontinuing drinking alcohol or cutting way back potentially can allow your liver to return to normal but it will take atleast 4 weeks. However , many people who suffer from enlarged liver don't drink too much, and need to look for diet low in what's called high glycaemic index.You should focus your diets around fresh, preferably raw fruits and vegetables, along with home made juices, and to purge your diets of all simple carboh ...

I hv been having problems of dizziness, and spinning sensations since last 4/5 days. Had the same earlier abt 2 yrs back but on a very mild scale and they went away without any medication. This time it has been rather acute. Visited the physician and hv been prescribed Vertin 8 mg 1x3 times a day before bkfst, lunch and dinner. After three days feeling better but the sensations are still there albeit milder. Feel the spinning sensation especially when I look straight up/down and then bring the head back to normal posn.Again when I am changing sides on bed while lying down from left to right rpt left to right I feel the same sensation. Tho' the dizziness and the spinning sensations are less now after taking the dosages of Vertin 8 last three days would u hv any advice as to how long it takes normally for the problems to be totally eliminated? I am particularly concerned as I am, tho' a retired person, a man of fairly active habits and for the various domestic chores often hv to drive quite a bit in heavy city traffic and as a result of this problem am completely grounded which is affecting our day-to-day life styles and needs.

Hi, Tablet Vertin is used for relief of vertigo due to several reasons, but it is to be known why is this vertigo occurring. For that reason MRI and other tests needs to be done. The possible causes could be some problem in the brain or ear. If there is chronic disease in the ear, the internal ear is effected and there will be vertigo. The duration of vertigo will depend on the cause. To prevent worsening of symptoms during episodes of vertigo, try the following: - Keep still, sit or lie dow ...

I woke up this morning and one of my teeth that I had a root canal done on years ago felt 'exposed' in the back by where my tongue is. The gum has always been a little higher there after the accident but this is more than usual. I got a mirror and looked and it looks like there's a hole in my gum behind that tooth. The gums that are there are above the hole are swollen. It doesn't really hurt unless I push on the swollen gingiva with my tongue. What should I do?

  Doctor's Answer

Consult your dentist and get a tooth x-ray done to learn the nature of problem. ...
