With the immune system created diseases the numbers can fluctuate as you can have "flares". Although there may be persistently deranged levels too.

With your ALP being raised it does indicate that part of the problem could involve the bike ducts in the liver so PBC is a sensible thing to check. There can be overlaps with Auto-immune hepatitis and PBC, so it us possible to have both.

Hope they're able to get to the bottom of it.

Good luck 😊

Have you been tested for Alpha1 Antitrypsin Deficiency? My numbers were elevated and my GE did several tests andfound I had Alpha1. It's just a blood test. Some have some symptoms, some none. It can't hurt to be tested.
