I've recently had a routine checkup and my SGPT is 146 ul and SGOT is 56 ul. Plus, my cholesterol is a bit high at 210. It's the first time my SGPT and SGOT levels have been high, and I don't drink alcohol. Should I go back for more tests, or maybe stick to a suggested diet for a couple of months before seeing a doctor? What would you recommend?
