Brief Answer:
No need to worry. You need not to concern.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to the 'Ask A Doctor service'.
I have read your concern and below is my opinion.

The sgpt and sgot values can be up to 42 U/L normally.

SGPT is specific to liver and your mentioned sgpt as well as sgot values are within normal limit.

So no need to worry about that results. You need not to concern about your mrntioned report values.

Hope I have solved your concern.

Let me know if you have any questions in mind.

Best regards
