I got my report today, and my SGPT is 185 while my SGOT is also high at 70. What does this mean. Is it harmful to my liver or does it indicate any problem.

These levels are high and may mean liver inflammation often due to fatty liver, alcohol, or medication. Avoid oily food and alcohol. Follow up with your doctor and repeat the tests after 2 to 4 weeks to monitor if levels improve.

Take a LFT (Liver Function) Test Test or Take a ACUTE HEPATITIS VIRUS EVALUATION I (HCV TOTAL ANTIBODIES, HEV IgM , HBsAg, HAV IgM , HBc IgM ) Test

Hello my father is infected with covid and has mild symptoms. The doctors said his blood report is ok but mentioned he has liver inflammation and advised admission. Please give directions?

I have been experiencing a fever of around 100F for the past 7 days, along with constant headache, body aches, and intermittent chills. I am attaching my CBC, LFT, platelet count, malaria, fasting glucose, and urine test reports for your reference. I am particularly concerned about my LFT values: ALT/SGPT is 256 and AST/SGOT is 225, which seem very high. Please review and advise on the possible cause and next steps.
