Hello welcome to the health care magic
I can understand your concern
Normal range for ALT and AST are up to 42.
Your liver enzymes value are very high.
You are having acute liver injury
Consult gastroenterologist for examination and discuss your case
Your bilirubin, USG abdomen investigation also needed for further work up
INR is internalized normal ratio which is discussed along with PT value
Provide your all reports for further comment
Hope this solves your concern
Take care
