Hello,
You labs suggest that you have fatty liver with raised liver enzymes. In this case I would suggest you get the following blood tests done
Tests for hepatitis b and c
ANA
Serum ceruloplasmin
In case these are negative the we would make a provisional diagnosis of Non alcoholic steato hepatitis.
Treatment would consist of regular exercise , reduction of fat and free sugar in diet and vitamin e.
In case the shot and sgpt remain persistently high you might need a liver biopsy
Hope this helps
Do get back in case you have further queries
