My recent Liver Function Test results are as follows: Bilirubin Total: 0.65 mg/dL (Normal: 0.00 to 1.10) Bilirubin Direct: 0.17 mg/dL (Normal: 0.00 to 0.20) Bilirubin Indirect: 0.48 mg/dL (Normal: 0.00 to 1.10) AST (SGOT): 28.5 U/L (Normal: 18.0 to 37.0) ALT (SGPT): 47.3 U/L (Normal: 0.0 to 40.0) Could you please explain what these results mean? Is there any concern, particularly with the ALT being slightly above normal?

Slightly elevated ALT (SGPT) could be due to fatty liver, alcohol, medications, or infections. If asymptomatic, focus on a liver friendly diet, avoid alcohol, and retest after a few weeks.

I had an ultrasound done for gas trouble which I have had for almost 2 years. The ultrasound report shows non visualized right kidney possibly agenesis with compensatory hypertrophy of the left kidney and fatty liver. I do not smoke, I do not drink, and I rarely take medicines. I understand that my right kidney has not grown since childhood. What does this mean for me along with fatty liver?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My recent liver profile test shows a high GGT level, while all other parameters, including SGOT and SGPT, are within normal limits.

I got my blood report today. SGOT is 43 and SGPT is 69, with normal values being 40 and 45 respectively. Total cholesterol is 185, HDL is 39, and TSH is 10.13. I will meet a doctor, but is this a matter of concern?
