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?

Slightly raised SGOT (44) is not dangerous if SGPT is normal. Can happen after medicines, exercise, or mild infections. Repeat LFT after 1to2 weeks with a light diet.

My blood report shows normocytic, normochromic cells along with macrocytes and ovalocytes. My SGOT and SGPT levels are 55.9 and 61.9, respectively. I do not consume alcohol or soft drinks. Am I suffering from any disease?

He has ALT 66.30 IU/L, AST 54.80 IU/L, GGT 75.00 IU/L. What does it mean? Is it a chronic condition? Note: He drank alcohol the night before he got the biochemistry test.

I am experiencing fatigue, low energy even after sleep, and digestive problems. I have been diagnosed with an enlarged liver and a bilirubin level of 1.2. I also have diffuse bilateral colitis. Could these symptoms be related, and what should I do to improve my energy and digestion?
