Hi, I can understand your concern

Norma values for
GGT is 0-45,
Cholesterol is Less than 200
SGOT is 5-40
SGPT is 7-56

I suggest if you are a heavy drinker, you must consider to stop alcohol at least till the time you get your results normal again.

If you have fever or abdominal pain or have yellowish urine, you must consider a ultrasound test.

These type of results can also be seen with gall bladder stones. Since your cholesterol is also borderline high, I will recommend life style modifications like cutting on fatty foods, alcohol, and starting exercise.

If symptoms or abnormal results persist, you must get an ultrasound done.

Regards.
