Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.GOT and SGPT are sensitive indicators of liver damage or injury from different types of diseases or conditions, and before any treatment the exact cause should be found. So the next step is to look for certain liver damage and most common cause is fatty liver disease. It should be confirmed by ultrasound. Other causes are viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, medications, alcohol intake or autoimmune diseases. To verify exact cause, US, bilirubin levels and tumor markers should be additional done. In every case, till you do these tests you should follow next
