A member asked:
If i had liver cancer what would my alp be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Alp or perhaps you meant AFP - alphafeto protein, often elevated in liver cancer. Afp doesn't always have to be elevated and amount of tumor burden will often dictate the levels of afp. Please consult with your doctor.
