Something was not quite right with a blood test for liver function I had as part of my annual review recently so I am due to have an ultrasound scan next month to see if it is anything to be concerned about. Could be due to meds possibly.

Are your live enzymes elevated? This can happen if you take tylenol for a long period of time.

I have stage 4 Liver fibrosis. I’ve never drank alcohol in my life. I was told it was caused by being on pain medications for over 10 years. I’m a 41 year old female.
