A member asked:
Could having a blood test only two days after a cellulitis flare up cause my liver levels, as well as my alkaline phosphatase to go up?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: any infection, like a cellulitis can cause a systemic response leading to inflammation of other organs including your liver. Medications you are taking such as antibiotics, can also cause elevated liver enzymes and an elevated alk phosphatase level

My last blood test results included these: albumin 3.9, total protein 7.0, alkaline phosphatase 165, ast/sgot 31, alt/sgpt 86, bilirubin, total 0.5, bilirubin, direct 0.2; any hint of a liver problem?
