Hello. Thanks for asking query on HCM.

You have elevated transaminases(SGOt and SGPT) which needs evaluation. Most common causes of this are alcohol intake, non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), medications, chronic hepatitis B and C. So i would suggest the following
- get your BMI calculated with height and weight, if >25 then risk of NAFLD is high
- ultrasound of the abdomen to look for fatty liver
- To stop alcohol if taking
- To check for Hepatitis B and C
- Monitor your liver function tests
- healthy lifestyle and daily exercise

Kindly send back the reports or show it to family physician.

Take care.
