abnormal liver values asymptomatic

abnormal liver values asymptomatic

I am 25 years old, male, hispanic and found abnormal liver enzyme values in a blood test.

AST = 102 (Max normal = 52) <2X
ALT = 142 (Max normal =  72) <2X

Billirubine and Albumine are ok and I don't have any symptom. I got a tatoo 2 months ago and I don't consume alcohol regularly. Is it normal that I have this values, or should I do a HVC test?

Regards
Arturo

What did your doctor say about it?  There are many variables that can raise your liver enzymes.  I would think your doctor would want to retest your blood in a couple of months or something.  If you are really worried about it go back and ask for the tests.
