A member asked:

Is alkaline phosphate reading of 133 and ggt reading of 210 in a 70 yrs old male inficative of severe liver damage?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: GGT really doesn't mean much. Alk phos is often high in older folks because of subclinical Paget's of the bone, which has nothing to do with liver. If there's a mass in the liver causing local cholestasis, it's not something that we need to figure out right away. How does the person FEEL?
