Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.Ratnakar Kini and I am pleased to assist you.

Only creatinine level that is higher than the normal range is of any significance. Your level does not indicate any serious disease.
Similarly a slightly out of range alkaline phosphatase does not signify anything. If it is raised at least more than two times the upper limit of normal and if the GGT level is also raised, then other tests should be done to see if there is any issue with the flow of bile from the liver.
I hope that answers your question.
Regards,
Dr.Ratnakar Kini
