Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
SGOT & SGPT are liver function test & can be elevated in number of conditions as follow
1. Acute hepatitis such as hepatitis A, B, C, D & E. In this case one or more symptoms like fever, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, poor appetite, joint pain, and headaches should also be present
2.Chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis C are other causes of chronic mild to moderate liver enzyme elevation.
3.Many Toxins & medications can be responsible for increase in the liver enzyme such an overdose of acetaminophen and many medicines
4. Liver function test may also be elevated in other infection unrelated to liver such as typhoid.
5. Fatty liver disease may also be present in non-alcoholic patients. Main risk factor for this are obesity & diabetis.
Refer to your physician
Hoping your query is solved.
