A member asked:

My daughter has been having pain in her stomach right side and her amylase was slightly raised at 128. a gastro doc isn't available until december. i see some upper normal limits above that. is this cause for concern. all other results were normal?

You should not worry about that amylase number. I doubt that your daughter needs to be evaluated by a GI doctor. Good luck.

And amylase level of 128 is not significantly elevated. You should follow through with whatever treatment your primary care doctor prescribed, and if the symptoms are still persistent she should return for the next step in the evaluation. Good luck.
