What gunz put up pretty much covers what you need. It's typically called a bio-chem profile.
One thing to add to that though. When getting AST and ALT levels checked, it's important to have your CK(Creatine Kinase) level and GGT(Glutamyltransferase) checked to compare.
AST and ALT levels can be associated with tissue damage/muscle trauma and the comparison to the GGT and CK can help in finding what the real culprit of your liver values are.(Liver compensation due to trauma of muscle or the actual organ from processing)
For instance, if your AST and ALT levels are sky high, your CK level is very high, but your GGT level is normal, than it's likely that your levels are elevated due to muscle trauma(which has occured in me after a back day).
GGT is not always included on a bio-chem so make sure to specify to your doctor."The tragedy of life is not found in failure but complacency. Not in you doing too much, but doing too little. Not in you living above your means, but below your capacity. Never failure but low aim, is life's greatest tragedy"- Benjamin Mayes
