Hi,
Thanks for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I wonder why the tests were taken, but they are mostly all normal
Except the Liver functions, where the enzymes ALT, AST are raised, around 2 times the normal.
With Bilirubin being normal, it isn't alarming, but you need to follow it up with a repeat test after 1-2weeks.
It may be because of alcohol use, any other drugs you may be on, or a viral infection.
In case repeat test shows higher values or similar abnormal readings, you will need further tests

Sir,
thanks for the responce. I usually get my blood work done once a year whilst i'm living and working overseas. Exposure to environemental hazards and general lifstyle of living and working in a third world. Also my sister has thyroid issues - Hyprothoridism, and there is a family history of renal and liver problems.
I do have some further questions that I would like to ask.
1. T3 and T4 levels?
2. Testoserone levels
3. Can you see any levels that require further investigation?
