Hi Yousuf!

Welcome to healthcare magic forum and thanks for the query!
AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) are reasonably sensitive indicators of liver damage or injury from different types of diseases or conditions. However, it must be emphasized that higher-than-normal levels of these liver enzymes should not be automatically equated with liver disease. They may mean liver problems or they may not. For example, elevations of these enzymes can occur with muscle damage. The interpretation of elevated AST and ALT results depends upon the entire clinical evaluation of an individual, and so it is best done by physicians experienced in evaluating liver disease and muscle disease.

There is a need to continue eating food with low fat, doing exercise, and generally watch your health and maintaining a healthy life-style.

Wishing you good Recovery and Health!
