Overview
The SGOT is going to be just like any other blood test. The procedure is going to be straightforward. You might need this test initially when your liver cells get damaged. In such a case, SGOT leaks into the bloodstream. This is the reason why its level may increase in your blood. High levels of SGOT account for various issues. Any organ or muscle which contains this enzyme might be damaged. From your liver to your kidneys to your heart, you might be facing issues all over.
There can be various reasons behind liver issues or disorders. Certain medications and biological agents like viruses and genetics may also be huge factors regarding such disorders. If you suffer from liver cirrhosis, no treatment is going to work as this condition has no cure. You need to go for the SGOT test as soon as you suffer from early symptoms. An early treatment for your condition will keep liver cirrhosis away from your body.
Test Necessity
Doing the SGOT test becomes important for any of the following reasons:
- Your doctor wants to diagnose liver damage or liver disease in your body.
- If you're suffering from conditions that affect your liver's health, like hepatitis c.
- A family history of liver disease.
- If you're undergoing treatment for liver disease.
- Symptoms of liver damage, such as weight loss or jaundice.
Test Preparation
You might be advised to take a liver panel along with the SGOT test. In case you have to go for a standalone SGOT test, no fasting is required.
During the SGOT Test
It will be a simple blood test where an experienced phlebotomist will come to your place and take the sample. The vein from which the blood is drawn will be located using a vein finder. He will put the blood sample into a collection tube and bring it to PharmEasy labs for analysis. It is a procedure of a few minutes.
