I was diagnosed with nonalcoholic cirrhosis while at ER for kidney stone..they only gave me numbers which I do not understand..Alkaline phosphate 157...Ast 65 how elevated are these?

Hi ScaredBy themselves those two tests can't really give you a diagnosis as they can both be elevated for a number of reasons. It is an indication that you should get proper testing by a doc with liver training. ER docs really don't get much of that and often are wrong when they talk about livers.
