Posted on Tue, 17 May 2016
Question: Hi Doctor. Kinda freakin out here. Just got my liver test back. I took the liver test because the day before I had Rhabdo....black coffee colored urine. SGOT = 955 and SGPT=601. My house doc said Rhabdo has nothing to do with SGOT and SGPT values. Now they are running test for Hep A,B,and C. I do not have anysympthoms from Hep, A,B or C

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I read carefully all your concerns and I can say as follows:
1.You are reporting to have had Rhabdo. Do you mean rhabdomyolisis?
If yes than your AST and ALT level can be explained by this issue rhabdomyolisis.
2.Since your AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT)are too high and indicative for acute issues than it's a good choice to do serological exams for hepatitis A, B and C.
3.I need to know more about your recent drugs and dosage.
One of the main causes of your issues is toxic hepatitis.
Otherwise I need to have more of your medical reports, please can you upload them to me so I can check them by myself.
Hope it was helpful to you.
