Recent lab work showed ast (sgot) at 53, way above the hospital's standard values. i have been having symptoms. what does # mean?

Liver or muscle: most often it reflects an irritation of the liver by mediction, alcohol, or nsaids like ibuprofen sometimes fatty liver (fat buildup in the liver) from poorly controlled diabetes can cause that. also, enough muscle injury can cause a rise in the blood level, but you should feel achy muscles lastly it could come from the kineys but you have no symptoms for that.

Hi I have an elevated ast (sgot) at 36.1u/l. The reference range for the lab I used is below 35 u/l. But another lab I have seen has a reference range up to 40 u/l. So am I out of range or not ? And is it something to be concerned about ? Thank you?
