[|Human|] My mother was having a chest pain 3yrs b4 and wen chekd for cholestrol, it was 299. Her ECG and echo was normal, but the TMT showed 86% ok. the doctor gave us the impression as it to be unstable angina and she still takes medicine against cholestrol. 7 weeks before her cholestrol level was 242 and when met doctor, he asked for sgot and sgpt tests after 6 weeks. Today was the day and when checked, the cholestrol is 182 and sgot is 56iu/l and sgpt is 61iu/l. CPK is 95.
[|AI|]  Brief answer : Your mother should go on with the treatment and check GOT, SGPT after three months. Detailed answer:Hello. Thank you for sharing this question in Chat Doctor. First, the medicine against cholesterol are working on well, but she still needs to go on with them. Second, as every other medicine they have side effects, which have to be under control. This medicine can cause high levels of GOT, SGPT and CPK. In the case of your mother, are elevated only GOT and SGPT, but this increase is not significant and may be temporary. In case of an increase of three times higher of the normal range of GOT and SGPT, then it would be obligatory the interruption of the medication. For now, she must go on with the treatment against high cholesterol levels, and have another check of GOT, SGPT after 3 months. She can check the CPK level only in case of myalgic. It is important to understand that she needs this medication not only for the high cholesterol levels, but also for her unstable angina. Hope this was helpful to you. Please feel free to contact me, if you need any other clarifications. Kind regards,
