Question

I recently had an LFT done and I'm a bit concerned about the results. My AST (SGOT) is at 174 UL, my ALT (SGPT) at 296 UL, and GGTP at 46 UL, although all other LFT results are normal. Can you help me understand what might be causing these elevated levels and suggest what kind of treatment I should consider? Also, would a general physician be enough for this, or should I see a liver specialist?
