Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

You have negative report for hepatitis virus .
So viral hepatitis excluded here that s good.....

Now you have high cholesterol level.
So just get your USG abdomen .....
It might reveal .....
-Fatty liver or
-Gall stone
-cholangitis etc.....

For above condition less fatty diet needs with more fruits....
Loose weight if overweight.....
Junk food , butter , cheese and meat less.
Exercise done.
If still cholesterol high drug needs to be started.

Let me know you alcohol drinking can affect liver and enzymes can be high.
So Avoid it....

If you have muscular problems or positive Cardiac history then also it can be high.

If no cause still found then biopsy needed.

Hope your concern solved.

Take care
