Continuous Increase In Sgpt Inspite Of Medicines And Diet. Alarming?

hi doctors.. last dec.4 i had may medical examination the result of my sgpt was 132.. my doctor gave a godex 3x day, she said that i would lower my sgpt. after a week i had taken again my medical exam but the result of my sgpt goes higher it is now 489. should it be alarming the continues rise of my sgpt in spite of the medication and diet? is there any effect or symptoms if u have a higher sgpt and does it mean that i have a hepatitis because of my sgpt?

Dear sir, Elevated sgpt can be cause by hepatitis of any kind, biliary diseases, diabetes, some medicines and other liver damage. 489 is pretty high and thid definitely means something. You dont need to have symptoms during the early stage of disease. You can feel tired, have pain in right side of abdomen,nausea and other non-specific symptoms. You need to do liver US or CT to find is it just fatty liver or some more serious disorder. Also you need to check viral markers and chabge you r lifestyle,avoid food and drinks which are bad for liver and do sport. Also repeat your enzymes tests constantly to see the dynamic of it.

Wish you good health. Dr. Ivan Romic
