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
