Mild liver enzyme elevation could be due to fatty liver or infection. Usually not serious. Avoid alcohol/fatty food. Repeat LFT after 2 to 3 weeks.

My husband has had diabetes for one year and was diagnosed with fatty liver 6 months back. Recently, he did HbA1c, which shows 5.5, but random sugar was 177. Lipid profile shows triglycerides 317 and HDL 26. LFT shows conjugated bilirubin 0.6. Vitamin B12 shows 1046. I am very worried about these reports. Please explain if it is okay to have such values or if any further tests are needed to identify the cause of these elevated values. If not, how can these values be lowered?

Sir, I recently underwent a package of various tests, and my liver function test results show values outside the reference range. I do not observe any symptoms in my body, and I do not consume alcohol. Could you please guide me on what this might indicate and if I need any further evaluation?
