High ALT/GPT normal AST/GOT
I am 22 years old. I did a blood test recently, which gave a result ALT 88 & AST 35. Both normal arranges were set to be 0-40. Hepatitis B test was negative. What other possible outcomes from this result could it be?
I am quite frustrated by this ALT value coz a low ALT is required by a pre-carrera body check.=[
