Detailed Answer:
Welcome back Dear,

Thanks for following up.. yes I've reviewed all of your reports and I can only give you good news that all the reports are within normal limits so you need not to worry.. Just the uric acid level is a bit on the higher side for which dietary restrictions can be obtained(you can seek help of a dietitian for a complete diet chart in this regard)..

While your liver function as well as the liver enzymes which are also essentially in normal range so don't worry..

Just cut down your alcohol intake, drink a lot of water, your blood pressure is also fine , don't worry..

If with dietary restrictions the uric acid levels didn't cone down and there's any further symptoms of hyperuricemia(your treating physician will decide that) then there may be need to start medications for for that but not before then(repeat uric acid level after 6 months from now and after dietary modifications)..

So as of now nothing to worry..

Take Care
Kind Regards
