What Does SGOT-44,SGPT-67 And Trigliceride-400 Indicate?

I'm having SGOT 44 and SGPT 67 and trigliceride at 400. I'm on 10 mg Atorvastatin. I used to take 160 mg of Lipitor also along with Atorvastatin. I've stopped Lipitor for last 2 months. I have been on these drugs for last 5 years. The SGPT and SGOT have been steadily over the last 5 year. Please advise.

Gastroenterologist,  's  Response
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist. Increase in SGOT and SGPT has many cause like Hepatitis B, C, Metabolic disorders, NAFLD, alcohol intake etc. So I will suggest you to visit a Hepatologist for evaluation who will advise tests and then manage accordingly. Meanwhile there are few medicines which I found very useful in my patients are ursodeoxycholic acid and vitamin E. Do regular exercise and reduce your weight if you are overweight, avoid alcohol if you drink.I hope I have answered your query and this will help you . Wish you a good health
