Hello Welcome to Healthcare Magic. Your SGOT and SGPT are mildly increased. It may be due to fatty liver. Mild increases also found now in patient infected with Hepatitis C. Liver enzymes increased in many conditions like liver injury due to hepatitis A or E, certain drugs like paractamol, ibuprofen overdoses and also due to certain antibiotics. Alcohol also a cause. I think you have fatty liver that's why or medications you have taken for kidney stones in past. If you are overweight than first try to reduce it by exercise and diet. If certain drugs causing it, please consult your treating doctor to evaluate the condition. Hope this will help you. Thanks for contacting. Take care...
