I'm really worried about my liver. My SGOT level is at 62.0, and my SGPT is 20.0. The doctor mentioned something about liver damage, and I'm scared because they said a liver transplant might be the last option. What steps can I take now?

I'm really worried about my husband who's 34. His SGOT and SGPT levels are high, and he's been experiencing swelling in his legs and face. Could this be a sign of a liver problem or something else? I'm not sure what all of this could mean but I'm definitely concerned. Could you help us understand what's going on?
