I recently had a liver function test. My ALP level is normal, but ALT and AST are elevated. I am also experiencing mild pain in the upper right abdomen, with no other symptoms. I do not consume alcohol, do not smoke, and have no history of diabetes, high blood pressure, or serious family illnesses. My cholesterol is normal, triglycerides are mildly elevated, my weight is 79 kg, and my height is 5 feet 7 inch

Elevated ALT/AST may indicate fatty liver or inflammation. Lifestyle, diet changes, and rechecking LFTs in 4 to 6 weeks are recommended. An ultrasound may help clarify.

Hello, my blood report shows SGOT 67. Is this a serious concern? Please suggest what I should do. I had earlier posted a question about a dry cough for the last month, and the doctor advised X-ray and blood tests. Everything came normal except SGOT elevated to 67. I work in the merchant navy, and if this does not get corrected, I may lose my job as I need to be medically fit every time I go on the ship. Please help. I am very worried about my health and job. Someone said there might be swelling in the liver, which is why the SGOT is 67.

Hi Sir or Mam, today I got a normal body medical checkup. I have seen my report and my SGPT is above the normal range. Please provide advice for my health.

I have a blood test scheduled for elevated ALT liver enzyme on the 9th. I cannot take pain medications. I have come down with a bad cold and am experiencing severe sinus pressure. Can I take Pseudoephedrine, Allegra D, or Mucinex D without affecting my blood test results?
