SGOT, SGPT Levels 130 Each. Normal?

I am a 24 year old male athlete who just had to get a blood test and fill physical for my life insurance. They told me I was one of the healthiest people they had ever seen. But, my sgot and spot were each around 130, but they told me that there was no need to worry at all. I am wondering if that is true. Also idrank two nights before my test, but I only drink a couple times a month. Please tell me if these levels are normal and nothing to worry about like the doctor said.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
The upper limit for SGOT and SGPT is 40. So these are not normal. Kindly get your Hepatitis Serology done for hepatitis B and C. Also it can be due to alcohol. For that purpose you can have an abdominal ultrasound done for hepatobiliary system.
Thanx and take care.
