A member asked:

My alt level was 61 and ast was 51. what does that mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Time for workup: These will probably be repeated after 2 weeks of no alcohol and off all meds that might cause these to be up They're liver enzymes. If still up, the cause will be sought. Hepatitis B / C, hemochromatosis, Wilson's, some others, or maybe just your body asking for more exercise, or maybe nothing. Best wishes.
