Question 1

what are normal levels for your liver tests?

Accepted Answer

It varies.: Every lab has different normal values, depending on a lot of factors around how they do the tests. Every lab result you get will have a normal range listed right after the result.

Question 2

what does it mean if your liver level is high?

Accepted Answer

Transaminitis?: Not sure what you mean by the "liver level"  but but liver enzymes commonly measured in the blood are called transaminases 9eg. Ast, alt) and when they are elevated it suggests there is inflammation of the liver and this can be on the basis of many possible causes including alcohol, fatty chage, hepatitis (infectious, autoimmune, vascular) or drugs.  Good luck!

Question 3

how common are low-level density lesions in the liver?

Accepted Answer

Liver lesions: Liver cysts are actually fairly common, there are other causes that are not so benign.  Often it is best to have complimentary studies such as an ultrasound and MRI to best evaluate the cause.

Question 4

why would my liver levels be high? they will also go very low? what would that mean?

Accepted Answer

Elevated transaminas: could be due to intrinsic liver diseases like hepatitis A,B,C, or due to alcohol or cholestatic picture like Gall bladder disease or common bilary obstruction or pancrease (pancrelipase) diseases. Knowing the liver enzyme levels will help narrow down the differentials

Question 5

at home liver test results color came out between a negative and +.  different shade levels of positives, there is a +, ++, +++.should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

At-home liver test?: Why are you doing this? Screening your urine for bilirubin will pick up only conjugated hyperbilirubinemia that would be apparent from your eyes being a bit yellow in the sunlight. Screens for urobilinogen normally run +1; crooked "liver tests" encourage people to worry about this. If you feel well, and this isn't something recommended by your physician, stop troubling yourself with this.

Question 6

my liver levels got tested.not sure which one it is but it's meant to be 80 but is at 120.do these things rebound and what is best for me to do to fix?

Accepted Answer

Liver can recover: The liver can often recover from many insults and damage. If you have any form of hepatitis you will need to be treated by a liver specialist. If you just have a mild increase in liver enzymes then there are some things you can do to help your liver recover. Stop all alcohol and Tylenol (acetaminophen). Eat a healthy diet and drink plenty of water. Good luck, take care and do not worry.

Question 7

foods that lower liver enzymes levels?

Accepted Answer

It depends: It depends on the reason for elevation.For example if its caused by alcoholism then simply avoiding alcohol is good. If its caused by "fatty liver disease" then following weight loss diet and losing weight might help you with that ....

Question 8

alt level from 51 to  60 in liver  is it normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: The normal range of values for alt (SGPT) is from 7 to 56 units per liter of serum.

Question 9

what is a dangerously high liver function level?

Accepted Answer

Need more info.: Doctors treat patients, not tests. A single lab value requires additional information in order to properly interpret it. All labs come with a range of "normal" values. This is the range of values expected for healthy individuals. Unhealthy people can have normal values and vise versa. Best to consult with the physicial who ordered the test to answer your question.
