Hi XXXXX,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.Ratnakar Kini and I am pleased to assist you.
Your test report says that you have had Hepatitis A infection in the past and you have developed antibodies to it and are immune to it. HAV immunity is lifelong immunity which means you will not get infected by HAV again . So there is no need to get vaccinated against HAV.
You have not mentioned about your profession. If you are risk individual like a healthcare professional, lab techinician or a dialysis patient etc, then you may require vaccination against Hepatitis B.
There is no vaccine available for Hepatitis C.
You high AST and ALT levels might be due to fatty liver which in turn may be due to obesity. Reduce your weight and avoid alcohol for improvement in these enzyme levels.
I hope that answers your question.
If you have no more questions, kindly rate this service.

Hi,
Since Hepatitis B and C are negative, you will not be rejected.
You liver is enlarged because of fat deposition ( called as fatty liver).
Obesity and alcohol intake , both can cause fatty liver.
Stop drinking alcohol and reduce weight to clear the fat from liver.
