Brief Answer:
No worries. Normal values

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

I read your question and i understand your concern. Your ALT and AST levels are in normal range although upper limit of normal. So no worries. These values are not worrisome unless double or three fold normal. If you have any symptoms like yellowish discoloration or epigastric or pain in right hypochondrium talk to your doctor and let them have a look.

I hope it helps. take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
