Question 1

Hello, my blood report shows SGOT 67. Is this a serious concern? Please suggest what I should do. I had earlier posted a question about a dry cough for the last month, and the doctor advised X-ray and blood tests. Everything came normal except SGOT elevated to 67. I work in the merchant navy, and if this does not get corrected, I may lose my job as I need to be medically fit every time I go on the ship. Please help. I am very worried about my health and job. Someone said there might be swelling in the liver, which is why the SGOT is 67.

Question 2

In general checkup my fasting blood sample report shows total RBC 6.61, MCHC 29.1 g per dl, RDW SD 49 fl, RDW CV 14.9 percent, platelet 150000, PCT 0.17 percent, BUN by SR. creatinine ratio 28.64, calcium 8.3 mg per dl, hs CRP 12.26 mg per L, vitamin D 21.93 ng per ml, vitamin B12 362 pg per ml, SGOT 71.7 u per l, protein 8.73 gm per dl, serum globulin 4.6 gm per dl, serum creatinine 0.66 mg per dl, triglycerides 161 mg per dl. Mainly I am concerned about hs CRP, SGOT, and platelet. Why are they abnormal and is it any danger? Please give me your advice.

Question 3

I have been suffering from acne for the past 6 to 7 years. My blood report shows SGOT 38.5, SGPT 52.4, and alkaline phosphatase 294. What does this indicate?

I recently had my LFT done, and my test report shows higher than normal values for SGOT (AST) and SGPT (ALT). I would like to know the possible causes and how to bring these levels back to normal.

Raised LFT can be due to fatty liver, alcohol, or viral hepatitis. Please take an ultrasound abdomen and Hepatitis B and C panel. Take these to identify root cause.
