Hi all,
My partner is in the interim of moving to NHS after being diagnosed with liver disease on private . He has hemochromatosis and the disease from this. His next appointment isn't until November and his last was in February.
He and myself are worried as we've noticed his ALP has risen in the last year from 91 to 150 which has been gradual. We are in the process of moving house and he won't go to the doctor until an appointment in November.
Can anyone advise if they've had their ALP increase slowly and why this was? His other results have been going down (AST, ALT) into normal or near normal range.
Additionally, he ironically is currently anemic after having too much iron taken and has Angular Cheilitis. He was taking Vit B12 to try and help this but again I'm concerned as he hasn't checked vitamins with docs as not seeing him until November. I don't know whether he'd have low B12 or high as I've read contrasting things. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thank you all. As I've said before I'm battling with trying to support and not cause him to feel frantic, worried and depressed. It is a challenge for all especially between work and general life stresses.
