Hey friends,
Had the US today. Nurse practitioner called me late in the day with findings. Compared to my last US taken 4 months ago they found nothing different. She said everything looked the same. I wish I could feel good about this, I mean thank goodness there are no masses, or tumors etc. but, 3 of my LFT's are up higher than they've ever been. And I've had this nausea and pain for 4 days. It was better last night and I didn't have nausea this morning so, whatever is happening seems to be subsiding. Still, what about the rising LFT's?? I asked her that very question. She really didn't have an answer. She doesn't know. I asked her if the 4 strain flu shot could've made this happen cause I had a flu shot 9 days ago. She said no. She did say maybe it was a stomach virus that caused the pain, being that the stomach and liver are close together. And I said, what about the LFT's? Could a stomach virus cause the LFT's to go up? She said.. No. So, her answers were no real comfort to me. She wants to run labs again next Monday. If they are the same or higher, she wants to do a CT scan and go from there.
Tonight, I don't have any nausea but I do have a small (like, leftover) pain in my back right side and a dull ache (with movement) in the front liver area. So, its getting better but, labs don't lie. Something going on or, did go on and its not showing up on the US. So, labs again next Monday and we go from there.
