A member asked:

I have autoimmune hepatitis, ast is 28 and alt is elevated 66. my crp is 0.1 and my esr is 2. does this mean inflammation is not the cause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Trending up or down?: Some questions to put your concern ; lab results in context: 1) how long have you had autoimmune hepatitis? 2) what treatment are you taking ; have your medications changed recently? 3) alcohol intake (should be minimal)? 3) supplements or steroid use? 4) are your transaminases trending up or down (a useful question if CRP ; ESR are low)? 4) risks for other kinds of hepatitis (viral, etc.)?
