A member asked:

I did a blood test and the result showed sgot (alt) is 60, sgpt (alt) is 60 and gamma gpt is 141. please advise if the liver problem is serious.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Can not tell: These tests are really misnamed. They have nothing to do with liver function but liver injury. Something is injuring the liver at a very slow rate. Even mild elevations as yours are, if it persists over years then it can be serious. It really depends on the cause. Some causes are more of a problem than others. It is important for your doctor to consider the cause if the levels stay elevated.
