NoneYa 380 Posted June 28, 2013 I'm scheduled for July 16th. I was given a list of pre-op tests to have done. My PCP is concerned about my heart and now wants to consult with my cardiologist. That wasn't worrisome enough. One of the blood tests came back showing my liver enzymes are high. Now I am asked to have an ultrasound to look closer at the liver. I asked the Dr if we shouldn't just assume that I have a fatty liver because I am fat but he said no. We need to check for a mass. I am crossing fingers and toes that this all works out and things go on as scheduled. I started my pre-op diet a week in advance to try to shrink my liver, we'll see. Sheesh, it's always something!

swizzly 901 Posted June 28, 2013 Liver enzymes are mental -- they go all over the place for no apparent reason. I am hoping things will be fine!! 1 NoneYa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard that gallstones can cause the liver enzymes to be high. I don't have a gallbladder or appendix. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
