Is The Elevated Value Of SGPT A Matter Of Concern?

Hi, Age 29, I needed to pass medical tests before I get visa of a country where i want to go for a job. Therefore, some medical tests were taken including urine, blood, syrology, chest xray and others to test HIV, Hepatitis, TB and chest diseases etc. There was no evidence of any disease found for example like TB, HIV, Hepatitis A,B,C etc were not found and they were non reactive. but my SGPT is 90. therefore, I am considered as medically unfit. Is this a big issue ? If I need to get Visa I need to decrease my SGPT level in a week or two. Doctor said If this is in initial stage this level will grow but cannot decrease in short time. I am now really worried what should I do and how do i decrease this level ? I never drink alcohol but I am a smooker and smook 6-7 cigerates in one day. What diet I should take, I used to eat junk food 3/4 days in a week. but now I am on a complete diet for two days and I am not eating any oily junk food. I am taking yogurt 6-7 tablespoon with some vegetables twice a day. and eating some fruits like graphs, apple etc. I am also drinking approximately 2 liters of water a day. I am not doing any exercise because i could not get time for it. but may be i will start light exercises from tommorrow. Please tell me that Can I reduce my SGPT level in a week or two? and Should I take yogurt(Not skim)? what vegetables i should take etc and whatever you can advice me please? Many thanks, Ahsan
