A member asked:
Hi i was wondering my ggt level is 64u/l which is very high but i don't drink alcohol or take drugs what causes the elevation? hep test negative

May just be you: That's high for the lab, I trust? About one person in 1000 always runs a way-high GGT. It's genetic. These folks get accused of being drunks. You're not. Sorry there was a misunderstanding. If everything else is okay, forget it.
