Hi Welcome to healhcaremagic After going through your query I concluded that you may be having enlargement of liver as your SGPT is raised. You need to do your ultrasound of abdomen to see it. Enlargement of liver may cause irritation of diaphragm which in turn cause pain at tip of left shoulder. You can discuss your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
