Hi and Welcome to HCM.
I appreciate your concern for your husband.
I have gone through his problems highlighted in form of raised liver enzymes, etc and further investigations like ultrasound.

He must avoid taking alcohol (if he consumes), fatty vegetarian and non vegetarian foods, fast and junk foods, he must take fruits and green vegetables with a healthy balanced diet.

Apparently he is having liver disease as reflected in the form of high SGOT and SGPT. He needs other liver function tests and ultrasound to ascertain the exact diagnosis. And the treatment depends upon the cause detected. Meanwhile he must avoid the things suggested above.

Wishing your husband a smooth and speedy recovery.
