well i want to start by saying that you should go over your lab results with your health care provider. lab results don't exist in a vacuum. what's "abnormal" for one person may be normal for another depending on their medical histories and many other factors. in general sgot/ast is an indicator of liver health. however elevated levels don't necessarily mean you have liver disease. many things can cause elevated sgot/ast which is why you need to consult your health care provider to learn what these results mean for you personally. ldl stands for " low density lipoprotein " which is the "bad cholesterol" in the total cholesterol equation. we generally like to see ldl values below 130. if your number is higher than that your doctor will evaluate this result in relation to your total cholesterol numbers heart health and also that sgot/ast elevation. hope this helps!
how to read blood work. got some high number's. what is sgot/ast ldl mean? thanks
