A member asked:
Labs show ast 67 & alt 101. everything else was normal. are those numbers that high? i am 38, no drugs or alcohol.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Liver function: AST and ALT are liver function tests, and the numbers you report are abnormal. There are several possible causes, and your doctor will likely recommend additional testing such as abdominal ultrasound and blood tests to try to establish the reason for the abnormality.
