Recent Blood work

Happy and Healthy New year to everyone on this forum. I had blood work done yesterday. I'm sober again for about 4 months now after living in bars for about 6 months last year!

ALP is 142

AST is 65

ALT is 44

I'm bit scared and worried about AST and ALT ratio at this point. I'm not sure what to make out of it and will wait to hear back from my doctor. As per the internet it is an indication of cirrhosis.I'm still smoking cigarettes and plan to cut them out soon!

They all sound high to me, what's your gamma glutamyl transferase

GGT was not ordered.

My ALP was 63 AST 21 ALT 18, but my gamma glutamyl transferase was 87 nearly 3 times the normal rate.

How much were you drinking ? You are still showing some mild inflammation after 4 months sober. You have more work to do here.

good for you, what you’re doing voluntarily isn’t easy,, keep it up.

we’ll done you. Staying stopped can be hard, but it becomes much easier the longer your sober. Keep going 1 day at a time. Can’t help with musical stuff - new to this myself but not drinking is a massive health factor in itself

Sorry to trump you with a GGT of 1375 2 years ago. I've stopped drinking and levels are all normalising but I have scarred my liver. The main thing is to stay stopped, and keep your weight down. You're doing really well, keep going, one day at a time.
