Hello
Welcome to HCM. Thanks for posting your query. I understand your concerns.
Your liver function tests that is LFT seems to be alright except for minor changes in liver enzymes. This is due to the hepatitis infection you had.

No need to worry. These enzyme levels takes 2 to 3 months to come back to normal levels.

Hope you are happy with the answer.

Thank you
