My blood report shows normocytic normochromic cells with macrocytes and ovalocytes, and my liver enzymes are elevated (SGOT is 55.9 U/L, SGPT is 61.9 U/L). I do not consume alcohol or cold drinks. I want to know if it is safe to undergo surgery for dry ear perforation. Also, could these results indicate any underlying disease? Please advise.

These mildly raised liver enzymes are not usually a contraindication for surgery. Inform your surgeon and anesthetist. Maintain a healthy diet and avoid alcohol.

Sir, my recent liver function tests show: SGPT: 300 SGOT: 600 GGT: 600 Bilirubin: 1.24 I am under treatment by a gastroenterologist, who says that heavy alcohol consumption on an empty stomach has caused the elevated liver enzymes. I want to quit alcohol and would like to know the risks associated with these high liver enzyme levels. What precautions should I take?

I recently had a blood test, and my SGOT level came out as 44, while the normal range is 0 to 40. What does this elevated SGOT indicate, and should I be concerned?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Attached are my LFT reports. I see that my bilirubin level is much higher than the normal range. What should I do to reduce the bilirubin levels? Should I use any medication? Currently, I am on statin medication for high cholesterol.
