4 year old with very high ALT

[MiriamClare]

Any advice please? I'm new here!

My 4 year old is being investigated for Hirshprung's (lifelong untreatable constipation) and as part of the routine blood tests her ALT came back as 164. Is this just a funny virus thing or could it be linked in some way?

Thank you

Can you have him seen by a liver doctor? I woukd get in to get a good second opinion preferably from a large medical center where they see pediatric patients.

Anything liver related can possibly cause abnormal Liver enzyme labs, I have PBC my alt was high now on treatment feeling better labs normal. Let us know how it goes.

Good morning,

Welcome to the forum.

The British Liver Trust information is for adults, we recommend you contact The Childrens Liver Disease Foundation for more information. Here is the link;

It would also be advisable to ask your GP for a referral to a liver specialist to properly review your child.

Warm wishes,

Rebecca
