Hi Doctor, I have done Lever Function Test this week. Which shown SGTP level count 54 (Normal range given in report - 05-40). Rest SGOT , Bilirubin , Albumin are within parameter specified in report. Just to give some background I have undergone a Hernia repairy surgery one month back and was on pain killers and muscle relaxant medication due to large ceroma deposition in groin region. Please can you advice if this is serious, is it a temporary caused by medications, and how to cure it naturally. Please help. Thanks.
Hi there, an isolated raised SGPT level and that also not much should not be a cause of worry. Painkillers can sometime alter your liver function test and stopping the medication will usually revert the enzyme levels back to normal. Follow normal diet and do not worry too much about it. You can get your tests repeated after a month and if still there is some derangement then you may visit your doctor. Till then relax and take Carl
