How To Control Increasing SGPT Levels?
Hello sir,
Recently, I have went through medical check-up and found that my sugar, GGT and SGPT levels are 144, 77 and 110. As I had suffered from Jaundice long before about 10 years back and also I use some alcohols after full curing of jaundice. After 15 days of above test/check-up, I again rushed to diagnose the above which count 93, 47 and 116 respectively. As the sugar and GGT were in control but SGPT is increasing, please advise me how to fully cure this problem and also state that by this high SGPT, can it be deemed that i am medically unfit..?
Yours

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understand your concern.
I suspect you might have Alcoholic Hepatitis.
because alcohol is the one of the common cause of the hepatitis.
You are an alcoholic.
That is why i suspect it might due to alcoholic hepatitis.
You need further tests like Ultrasound abdomen and Upper GI Endoscopy to rule out any liver enlargement like fatty liver and Esophageal varices.
You must quit alcohol now itself to control the further damage to liver.
We cannot say as unfit for just a elevation in SGOT. You need through physical examination and investigations to say as medically fit or unfit.
Hope this helps.
Please write back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.
