I need to stay off Dr. GOOGLE! My AST is 19 and ALT is 15. Google says this ratio indicates cirrhosis! I'm pretty sure my doctor would have told me if I had cirrhosis. Are these good numbers? I used to be a heavy drinker but for past 15 months sober?
30y/o male. AST:ALT ratio is greater than 1 but all values on LFT are normal. Heavy drinker for 8+ years. Specific values are AST: 21, ALT: 18, albumin: 5.1, total bilirubin: 0.8, indirect: .23, protein: 7.2, ALP: 67. Anything to worry about?
