HiT hanks for Asking. Your son is having constant elevation of the liver enzymes, GOT and SGPT, which is persisting even after 6- 8 weeks. Constant elevation suggests liver damage, there are plenty of reasons of raised liver enzymes liberal infectionAlcoholToxinsHereditary disorders Chat Doctor. Thanks.
