A member asked:

In a blood amylase levels test normal range being considered 25 - 115ui/l a result of 115 suggests anything? what would be a significant high value?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stop worrying: Reference ranges are set so that several percent of healthy folks fall outside on either end. I'm sorry nobody told you this. Acute pancreatitis can feature values of many thousands. There are other causes ranging from the enzyme being tagged with an antibody to mumps to a shot of an opiate.
