I'm a bit worried because my SGPT level is at 66, which seems higher than normal. Everything else like my SGOT at 34 and GGT at 40 is fine. I havent had any alcohol for a month, and I'm thin and didnt work out before the test. Is it a major concern that my SGPT level is elevated? How can I reduce it?
