LIVER FUNCTION TEST (LFT) - PLEASE ADVISE!

Hi guys! I'm 31 year-old male and writing this to discuss with you my concern as I have excessive health anxiety during my whole life. Normally I go and do the blood work every 6 month to screen my health status. 2 days before I've done my routine my blood work and it seemed normal except for LFT which I have slightly high AST (60 I/U). Normal range based on the lab report for AST was 5 - 45 I/U. My ALT was normal (26 I/U) and my GGT was too (12 I/U). Bilirubin and the rest was quite fine. I drink occasionally and I don't smoke and I didn't drink during the last week. My LFT had been fully normal in my previous check-ups. I surfed the whole internet to find out what's the reason for slight high AST and I couldn't draw a conclusion. I've been vaccinated for HEP B and test for it and I still have anti body however I didn't have any risk factor at all. my lab result was ready only after 1 hour (I'm in Malaysia) and I was thinking maybe it was a lab mistake. I don't have any specific health problem other than anxiety and some stress. I have sleeping problem too however. Can you please give me some pieces of advice? And anyone knows why expert forum of gastroenterology won't accept new questions?? Thank you
