Hi!
Welcome to HCM!
Your CREATININE, SERUM 0.86 mg/dl is normal.PLATELETS count 3.86lakhs/cu.mm are normal.The serum SGOT, and serum SGPT, are enzymes whose levels are tested to detect liver damage from any cause. They also rise in muscle and heart disease. The biological reference interval (reference range) varies from lab to lab depending on the method of testing, kit used, reference population etc. Moreover, the test result must be interpreted in context with the clinical profile of the patient. Generally, the levels of AST ranges from 5 to 43 or 45 units per liter and of ALT from 7 to 56 or 60 units per liter
HbA1c is high at 7 upto 6 is normal.its used for checking diabetic control in last 3 months.So your diabetes needs a better control.
Take care!
