A member asked:

I have elevated liver counts and have been vomiting for two weeks what would cause this? my counts are ast/sgot 61 and alt/sgpt 93.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You have "hepatitis": Hepatitis is defined as inflammation of liver cells, as is indicated by elevation in serum transaminases (ast and/or alt). Hepatitis can be caused by a variety of issues (infectious, ischemic, metabolic, toxic, infiltrative, alcohol-related, drugs, etc.). It is impossible to say why your liver tests are elevated without more information--so, what tests have been done & what has been ruled out?
