I'm really concerned because my sgpt, sgot, and ggt numbers are pretty high and above normal levels. Plus, I noticed my leukocyte count is also elevated. Can you help me understand what this might mean?

Having elevated SGPT, SGOT, and GGT levels along with increased leukocyte count can indicate liver and inflammatory issues. To address this, you can consider taking medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid to support liver function and reduce liver enzyme levels. Additionally, Ibuprofen can help with inflammation and leukocyte count. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
