How Zora Carey treated high ast sgot?

 Note - This article is written by one of our patients about their experiences with high ast sgot. 

My name is Zora Carey, and I just turned 45, so I decided to put my health first by getting a thorough blood test. I was shocked to learn from the results that my AST (SGOT) levels were high, coming in at 85 units per litre (U/L). It wasn't too high, but it was above the normal range, which made me worry about the condition of my liver.

I made the decision to face the situation head-on and take charge of my well-being rather than give in to worry. I sought advice from a medical expert so that I could comprehend the possible causes and create a successful treatment strategy.

I learned through medical consultations that elevated AST (SGOT) levels could be a sign of a number of underlying conditions, such as liver disease, alcohol use, specific drugs, or vigorous exercise. Additional diagnostic procedures including a liver function panel and an ultrasound scan were advised in order to pinpoint the precise cause.

I took action to deal with the matter while I awaited the test results. I significantly altered my diet, putting an emphasis on following a balanced and nourishing meal plan. While processed meals, refined sugars, and saturated fats were restricted, fresh fruits, vegetables, lean meats, whole grains, and healthy fats were staples. I also cut back on drinking.

My programme already included regular exercise, but I tweaked it to support liver health. I did a combination of aerobic, strength training, and low-impact workouts like yoga and swimming. Stress reduction became a top goal, so I looked for methods of relaxation like deep breathing exercises, meditation, and participating in hobbies I enjoyed.

After receiving the test results and speaking with my doctor, it became clear that the main cause of my increased AST (SGOT) levels was a history of severe alcohol use when I was younger. I thus decided to entirely stop drinking since I understood how important it was to get my liver back to health.

Contact a doctor

My doctor also recommended particular drugs and nutrients designed to support liver function and lower AST (SGOT) levels in addition to lifestyle changes. I followed the treatment plan exactly, making it a point to check in with my doctor on a frequent basis to see how I was doing.

My dedication to living a healthy lifestyle and following the advised treatment plan eventually produced fruitful results. My AST (SGOT) levels gradually decreased as a result of follow-up blood tests, confirming the efficiency of the changes I had made.

Despite the difficulties the voyage offered, I remained strong and leaned on the love and support of my loved ones for support. My development was greatly aided by their inspiration and motivation.

I'm happy to report that my AST (SGOT) levels are once again within the normal range today. I've learned from this experience how important it is to take responsibility for my health, make informed decisions, and ask for help when I need it. It has highlighted the importance of having a solid support network and the ability of lifestyle changes to transform one's health.
