Are Grossly Elevated Liver Enzymes Very Dangerous?
Yes it should be investigated asap to find out the cause.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Yes, if I consider the measurements in international units your liver enzymes are grossly elevated.Grossly Elevated liver enzymes may indicate inflammation or damage to cells in the liver.Inflamed or injured liver cells leak higher than normal amounts of certain chemicals, including liver enzymes, into the bloodstream, which can result in elevated liver enzymes on blood tests.The most common cause is nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, which usually affect up to 30 percent of the population.
I would suggest you to go for a ultrasound upper abdomen to rule out any possible inflammation in liver.
Secondly serology like HIV, HBsAg and HCV should be done to rule out viral infection.
However a detailed ultrasound would make things much clear.
Follow up with reports.

Rise in liver enzymes are due to your alcoholic intake.
