Sam46 9 Posted August 5, 2015 Hi, Just curious on blood work if anyone had a high result mine is 48. I'm preoperative waiting to hear back from Dr. All my other test look awesome but this is the liver..any responses greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisee68 2,493 Posted August 6, 2015 I don't know a lot about this and certainly not a medical professional; however, I will say that it isn't a super high count. I mean not great but not awful. Is the AST high also? It can be a myriad of things - do you take cholesterol or diabetes meds or other like maybe too much pain relievers? Also, it can signal gallbladder issues sometimes. Or most likely it could be fatty liver which most of us with high BMI's have. Try not to worry too much. If it was off the charts, they would call you. I think there was someone else on here who had to postpone their surgery a little until the count came down, but I believe their counts were higher. Hang in there. Be patient (though I am TERRIBLE at that myself .) I hope they call you soon and if not, call them tomorrow morning to put your mind at ease. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RNJeremy581 0 Posted August 11, 2015 Probably a little bit of fatty liver... both my alt and ast are over 100.. one of them is triple... I believe they will be doing a biopsy during my surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
