They are mildly elevated, however with no context it is hard even to speculate. Your ordering doc remains your best resource in trying to place such results in prior clinical context.

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 values are only mildly increased and you may wish to watch and wait to repeat in 3-6 months. Wish you good health!
