Hello welcome to HMC. thank you for posting your query. SGPT is serum glutamic pyruvic oxalocetic transaminase , a liver enzyme helps in diagnosing liver functions. the normal levels are 5 - 40 IU/L. thses liver ezymes are increased in fatty liver, viral hepatitis A,B,C and hepatotoxic drugs. as you have the past history of jaundice and fever, there are chances for developing liver problems again. i would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for further evaluation . hope i have answered your question.
