GET IT CHECKED: AFP Alfa fetoprotein normally is less than 10 ng/dl High AFP may be seen in Lymphoproliferative Disease and Kidney Neoplasms. Sometimes in Liver Neoplasms! Best go to your physician to have it checked out! Only high AFP in Hepatitis C Viral Infections with Liver Neoplasms ! Rare otherwise in most infections!
