Hi lybrate-user, hope you are doing well, glucose 6 phospate is an enzyme which prevents oxidative stress in the body deficiency of which causes the rbcs to hemolyse which inturn causes direct billirubin to go high. Chronic high lft may be due to hemolysis. Management includes to avoid foods which cause oxidative stress like red wine, all legumes, blueberries, soya products and certain drugs like sulfa drugs, quinolones, quinine. If it is stil persisting you can consult a hematologist.

There is no cure for G6PD deficiency, and it is a lifelong condition. However, most people with G6PD deficiency have a completely normal life as long as they avoid the triggers.

A qualitative test for g6pd is essential for the correct evaluation.
A normal test result tells your healthcare provider about g6pd activity in your blood cells. A normal—or no g6pdd—result for adults is 5.5 to 20.5 units/gram of haemoglobin. Less than 10% of normal means that you have a severe deficiency and chronic hemolytic anaemia.

Hello, thanks for the query.
Madam, I have seen the details. However, you have mentioned only tsh value, nothing about t3 & t4. It is necessary to know those values also. Tsh 4.6 mu/l is not really high. It must be with in the normal range mentioned in your lab report. In uncontrolled hypothyroidism tsh invariably goes uch higher and t4 values also may be low. Please come back with all the values also mention your weight & height. Thanks.

You have not mentioned the medications you are taking. Hypothyroid and bp are not very difficult issues for doctors to manage. For hypothyroid regular tablets and thyroid profile test at least every 3 months to fix the dosage is necessary.
