Hi, one of my LFT tests shows SGOT as 70 with a reference range of 15 to 37 and SGPT as 200 with a reference range of 16 to 63. Another lab test shows SGOT as 83 with a normal range of 0 to 40 and SGPT as 176 with a normal range of 0 to 36. Can someone please help me understand which values are worse? Is the second lab test worse than the first? Which values are higher?

Both labs show elevated liver enzymes (SGOT/SGPT), even if ranges differ. Higher SGPT suggests liver stress possibly fatty liver, alcohol, or medicines. Do Liver Ultrasound and rule out hepatitis. Reduce oily food, alcohol, painkillers. Follow up with LFT after 2 weeks.

Sir, I have epigastric and burning pain in my epigastric region and also in back with bloating. There is always pain and burning in the abdomen. I have taken a lot of medicine but not permanent relief. I am sharing my report that says cholecystitis. Will my gall bladder be removed? I also have grade one fatty liver and some enzymes are a little high like amylase and lipase. Amylase is always under 120 but lipase a little high, first time 64. What happened with me? Is this pancreatitis or cholecystitis? Please help. What will happen in this matter?

What is SGOT? For me it is showing 42 IU/L which is more than normal in my report. Please explain whether I have any problem? It stands for serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase?
