Hello and welcome to HCM,

I will take your problems one by one.
SGPT is a liver enzyme. It is raised in damage to liver cells due to any cause.
The normal range for SGPT is 0-40 IU/L.It is usually measured along with SGOT.
Both these liver enzymes are elevated together.
There is only mild increase in levels of SGPT so no specific disease process is suggests by this mild increase.
If you get a medical coverage, you can get all liver function tests to know the status of liver functions.
Since, vitamin D level is insufficient thus, your doctor has prescribed calcitriol.
A repeat vitamin D should be done after completing the course.
Normaxin is a drug used to relieve spasmodic pain probably associated with appendicitis.
Meganeuron od plus is a multivitamin preparation.
The drugs are completely safe.
Stay in touch with your surgeon for the appendicitis.
Surgery may be required if the attck of appendicitis recurs.

Thanks and take care
Dr Shailja P Wahal
