18 years old and recently did a blood test. Result : alkaline phosphatase level of 165, ALT of 16 and gamma glutamyl transferase of 16 . Normal ?
What type of treatment is given to patients with elevated levels of sgot, sgpt and alkaline phosphatase?
Bun 6, alkaline phosphatase 135, B12 >1000, folate (folic acid) 19.5, ALT 80, 6 mos after a "false positive" hep c test. Are these numbers bad? Or normal?
Chronic elevated alkaline phosphatase. GGT normal, other blood test negative. Liver ultrasound clear. My doctors said it is a mystery of elevated AP.
