A member asked:
My alt every 2 years for past 6 years will elevate to 75 and stay there for 8 months before going back to 41-43. then it'll happen again in 2 yrs. why?

Hard to tell. : Minimal, on and off elevation of the transaminase levels in this way is very nonspecific. This could be a reaction to something you ate, for example, or a reaction to an over-the-counter medication you took. As long as they’re not trending upward, we would presume everything would be fine.
