Yes, the values what you have put from your report is a matter of concern. About your liver parameters namely Alkaline Phosphatase, SGOT, SGPT and GGT are above normal, which is indicating about liver dysfunction. Uric acid also seems to be little high because of your alcohol intake. TSH (indicator of thyroid function) is also altered.
You need to stop alcohol intake and give sufficient time for the altered parameters to come back to normal. Generally, liver recovers well when alcohol is avoided. Keep a check on thyroid functions once in 6 months and get treated accordingly.
