Gallbladder as stones relate to liver function being affected.?

They are both part of the billiary system. Actually, the gall bladder is attached to the Liver as well. The Gall Bladder helps us digest food, by storing bile and releasing it into the stomach when needed. If the Gall Bladder is malfunctioning, the lilver will produce the bile, but the bile will be backed up, due to the gall bladder disfunction. This will cause the liver to not function properly. The Liver like the filter of a swimming pool. All the crap in the water goes through the filter in the pool to, well, filter all the bad crap out. The water is then sent back into the pool by the pump, through the plumbing. Most toxins in the human body get filtered out in the liver. Any disfunction of the liver will cause chaos in the rest of the body, including weight control.

the gall bladder cleans the blood out for you and when its not right also the liver can mess up also. its not good that its having problems and i would think it would be taken out soon. it can make your turn yellow and the liver can stop if you are not careful. you onlyhave one liver and theycan cut part of it off. you can swell cause of the gall bladder and stuff and you can maybe lose weitht after the surgery. but remember the duct leading to the gall bladder also has to be cleaned out of it will make you sick and then it will lead to emgerncy. let them know you know all this and see what they have ot say. take care. eating spcicy food is what causes the gall bladder to mess up.

ammuammu, SGPT stands for "Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase. This is an enzyme that is normally present in liver and heart cells. SGPT is released into blood when the liver or heart are damaged. The blood SGPT levels are thus elevated with liver damage (for example, from viral hepatitis) or with an insult to the heart (for example, from a heart attack). Some medications can also raise SGPT levels. The normal SGPT range for adults in most labs is 0 to 35 units per liter (U/L). The normal range may vary slightly from lab to lab. Normal ranges are usually shown next to your results in the lab report. Your husband's SGPT of 95 is indeed higher than normal. Sometimes the cause of the elevation just isn't known. There are no “normal” levels of bilirubin, as such, as it is an excretion product, and levels found in the body reflects the balance between production and excretion. Different sources provide reference ranges which are similar but not identical. Direct bilirubin = 0 to 0.3 mg/dL. Total bilirubin = 0.3 to 1.9 mg/dL (mg/dL = milligrams per deciliter) “Normal” values may vary slightly from laboratory to laboratory. If the reading was for Direct bilirubin it is elevated, of for Total it is within limits. One really needs all the results of the LFT (liver function test) to ascertain if your husband's results are in isolation or not.
