Always need normal values for the tests. Different in UK sometimes. Check meds you are taking by going to Drugs.com and look for liver effects. Also discuss with your Dr how much alcohol you drink a day or week. Cheers.

All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, your result is within normal limits. If you drink alcohol, stop entirely, do not take acetaminophen, Talk to your doctor about repeat test in 3-6 months. Wish you good health!
