Hello all,
I am looking for some kind of reassurance and maybe some answers?
Back in July after having my 3rd baby in May. I had blood work done. Including LFTs. These all came back abnormal and high (I don't have the figures) except for ALP which was normal. I was send for an ultrasound that showed a fatty liver. Due to the pain I was having on my right side front and back, I was refered to a heptoligist. He advised I had been sent to him because I had a shadow on my liver. He ordered a repeated scan and more bloods. Between my first blood test and seeing the specialist I lost 2 stone, exercised twice a day and changed my diet completely!
Repeat bloods showed were normal appart from a rise in ALP at 115.
The scan showed my liver as completley normal.
I have had repeat bloods on a few occasions and my ALP had gone up and down. As of last week it was 110. My GGT is normal so my GP tested my vitamin D levels which are low at 34. I am now in VIT d pills. In reference to my pain on my left side my doctor seems to think it's irritation of the stomach lining an has prescribed omperazole. I'm not convinced as i still have the pains and they don't seem to be getting any better. I am waiting for the restults for AMA blood test (done at my request).
I have had all other bloods checked, hep screen clear, hiv clear, I don't drink. I am Breast feeding my baby. I did have an awful diet before this thou.
My GP has advised me to still refain from fatty foods and alcohol but stated that he thinks my liver is back to normal.
He is not willing to do MRI on my liver or fibro scan.
Can anyone tell me if it likely my liver is back to normal? Why do I still have really bad pains in that area? ( Dr thinks pulled muscle but I've had it for nearly 7 months!) and what could the pains on my left side be? (I've read about enlarged spleen and pancreas but my ultrasound didn't show any problems)
Thank you in advance
And merry Christmas
