Thank you for the quick response. I greatly appreciate it. I'm ecstatic to beable to go into our new pool, also for exercise seeing that I pulled a muscle in my groin walking the treadmill. My fear of waiting till Oct. to see a gastro is that severe damage will happen to my liver in the meantime, until I get treatment. I picked up my ultrasound report and if you could please explain what all this means?
Abdominal Ultrasound-Limited:
Comparsion is made to the previous study of 8/28/08
1. Diffuse fatty infiltration of the hepatic parenchyma.
2. The gallbladder, pancreas, intra and extra hepatic biliary ducts, right kidney, aorta, inferior vena cava and common iliac arteries are normal.
IMPRESSION:
Fatty liver. The gallbladder is normal.
I'm now waiting for more bloodtest results from yesterday.
Would you recommend a gastro. or a Hepatologist?
I have a procedure next Tuesday to remove a sebaceous cyst, I've read that a antibiotic is usually prescribed after to prevent infection. I've also read that antibiotic's aren't good to take with high liver enzymes. Would you recommend I reschedule the procedure for now? or would it be ok to take the antibiotic?
Not sure when I can resume taking Ibuprofen again for headaches, pulled groin muscle, ect. Please advise?
My PCP, he took me off the metformin and lipitor at this time thinking it's the med's that are causing the high liver enzymes. However, if they are the underlying cause, wouldn't the level's of went back down as time went on and not up?
I know this sounds like a weird question, but was wondering what your advice would be in coloring my hair? because of the toxins in hair dye
Also, would you recommend taking vitamin E and if so, what dosage?
Would it be ok to finish painting in my house?
Could untreated Hashimoto's and my high antibodies may have anything to do with my high liver enzymes?
