Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, you had hepatitis, since 30 years,probably it could be due to the obstruction in the bile duct, and there could have been the increased S.G.O.T, and S.G.P.T. Or they would have increased recently.
Any how they suggest the liver is in problem. the obstruction would have been cleared after the surgery.
It may take some more time for the liver enzymes to come down. you may have to use the medicines to bring down the enzymes and to make the liver healthy. So you can continue them the the liver becomes healthy.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
