Do Elevated SGOT Level And SGPT Level Pose Risks To Liver?

Hi Doctor,

I did LFT on 09/11/2012 and my result shows elevated SGOT 42 U/L & SGPT 66 U/L. Serum bilirubin , alkaline phosphatase and serum proteins are in range. I am 38 years old and having gastric complaints since 3 years. Does this shows any problem on my liver? Please advice.

Regards

George

Hi..Dear..your reports of 2012 are within normal limits except very slight elevation in SGPT but not significant but looking at your current problem it will be better to do fresh investigation and with likely complain it will be better to do USG abdomen and consult a gesteroenterologist if possible..the cause may be other than liver..also it is advisable not to take any spicy food or fast food..more details will be found only after New investigation..Hope that was helpful..thanks
