Did anyone have really elevated LFT 's?

[Guest]

I got my labs done again and it looks like my LFT's have tripled! They were high to begin with. The only thing I can think of is that I had my blood work done right after I got over the flu.

I'm also anemic so I will get some meds for that.

I'm just curious what can cause such a high LFT? I will get the exact number when I go to medical records. Finishing up my preop appointment now.

It can mean so many things, really. Depending on how high, it could be fatty liver, hepatitis, an abscess - has your doctor recommended any other testing to confirm why it's so high? Have you had any alcoholic beverages lately?

My doctor said he's not sure but I'm doing a hep A screening. I have not had any alcoholic beverages since I've been sick w the flu. :/

Looks like the AST is 106 and the ALT is 192.

My numbers are high due to a fatty liver.....my radiologist thought it was due to drinking......sorry big guy, I haven't had a drink since Jan. 2012 LOL
