Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

Increased ALT,GGT and increased ferritin level indicates liver injury.It is important to know about other parameters of LFT like bilirubin level etc.
It is most likely due to alcohol consumption.
You need proper clinical examination and few more investigations.
Other investigations include routine hemogram,RBS(Random blood sugar),Viral markers.Further investigations can be done if needed.

You may need medicines after proper checkup.
You should avoid alcohol completely.
Avoid fatty and fried junk food.
Hope i have answered your query.

Take Care
