hello,
rising of sgot alone can be due to many conditions like drugs, or a simple viral fever etc.
albumin in urine is rare and needs to be evaluated to rule out nephrotic syndrome etc.
i would advise you to consult a pediatrician in this regard.
if the fever worsens call the emergency number.
i hope i have answered your query.
take care and wishing your son a speedy recovery

Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
If the fever is persisting for last 2 weeks basic investigations for fever CBC PSMP and Urine routine and microscopy needs a repetition and certain other investigations like Widal LFT are also advised SGOT 75 is suggestive of mild viral hepatitis also temp pattern needs to be monitored . LFT should be reviewed again after 15days to monitor liver enzymes .
Bye take care

Fever lasting morethan 2wks- possibility of typhoid fever, viral hepatitis, Primary TB is there
Do tests for these things
