hi
thank for your query
Liver function tests such as SGPT, SGOT, serum alkaline phosphatase, globulin and albumin are few of the markers of the liver function and its ailments.
SGPT and SGOT are the most important enzymes of the liver parenchymal cells. They are in large numbers in the liver. These enzymes are released in the blood when the liver cells get damaged.
You will have to get further investigation done such as test for hepatitis C, B, and E. Also get a sonography of the abdomen done
