Hello. Thanks for asking query on HCM.

I appreciate your concern. You have mild elevation of SGPT. As you have not given the other Liver function test reports, I assume them to be normal. Most common cause of mild elevation of SGPT are alcohol intake, fatty liver and chronic hepatitis B or C. I would suggest you to test for Hepatitis B and c virus, ultrasound of abdomen, reduce alcohol if taking and good healthy life style including daily walk and exercise. Monitor your LFTs. With these measures hope it will become normal.

Take care.
