Hi, one of my LFT tests shows SGOT as 70 with a reference range of 15 to 37 and SGPT as 200 with a reference range of 16 to 63. Another lab test shows SGOT as 83 with a normal range of 0 to 40 and SGPT as 176 with a normal range of 0 to 36. Can someone please help me understand which values are worse? Is the second lab test worse than the first? Which values are higher?

Both labs show elevated liver enzymes (SGOT/SGPT), even if ranges differ. Higher SGPT suggests liver stress possibly fatty liver, alcohol, or medicines. Do Liver Ultrasound and rule out hepatitis. Reduce oily food, alcohol, painkillers. Follow up with LFT after 2 weeks.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

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
