Question

Hello my father is infected with covid and has mild symptoms. The doctors said his blood report is ok but mentioned he has liver inflammation and advised admission. Please give directions?

Question

I would like to understand if my SGPT report is normal or if there is anything concerning in it. Although my doctor mentioned everything is normal, I want to be sure.

I just received my blood report, which shows SGOT/SGPT levels of 42 and 45.36. What do these values mean? I am currently in the 8th month of pregnancy and hoping for a normal delivery. I have also been diagnosed with gestational diabetes and high blood pressure during this pregnancy. Could you please advise if these liver enzyme levels are concerning and what I should do next?
