Thanks for your question on HCM.
Your all blood reports are good. Only liver enzymes (SGPT) is raised.
It is not markedly raised. It is only slightly raised.
And it is mostly due to previous Hepatitis.
So I advice you to get done
1. Ultrasound examination of abdomen to rule out liver pathology (fatty liver).
2. HBsAg to rule out Hepatitis B.
Fatty liver is common after Hepatitis and it is totally benign and reversible condition. It shows similar elevation of SGPT.
So get done ultrasound examination of abdomen.
Also rule out chronic Hepatitis B infection as it also causes similar elevation of SGPT.
If both are normal then no need to worry.
