A member asked:

I discovered that my alkaline phosphatase is 128. it was 118 eight months ago. my ast is 18, alt is 29, bun 11, creat 0.9. should i worry? 34yr male.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stop worrying: If it's non-fasting and you do not have blood group A or AB (which inactivate intestinal alk phos), you're probably normal. Most folks who run a slightly high alk phos, which is common, never find the cause and it never reveals a treatable problem that you won't find on routine history and physical. You're a guy so you're not pregnant. Might you have had a little bone fracture from sports?
