HI
Welcome to HCm

Very sorry for your condition . See your SGPT/Alt is high because of two reasons . 1, Chemotherapy . 2. Could be a spread to Liver .

Ask your Oncologist to either change the chemo regime or reduce the dose ( if possible ) as that might help your ALt levels .

I also advise you to take Hepamerz 1 sachet everyday for 1 month . This will bring down your SGPT levels .
If you can post your reports i can help you better .
I find this answer helpful
