What does a sgot test of 59 mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's high: And probably worth figuring out why. If it seems to be coming from your liver (your physician can tell), you'll get a workup which may start with a repeat off alcohol & meds. If it's normalized, that's your wakeup call. If not, a check for treatable serious diseae (hepatitis family, hemochromatosis, wilson's, a few others) is in order. If that's clear, a rx for increased fitness may be in order.
