Hi 1155Cat, your enzymes were in really good condition so no need to worry take your Urso again.

Maybe it’s the sickness condition altering your enzyme. When I had influenza couple of months ago it did happen to me but then came back to baseline.

I think the good news here is that Urso is working for you. I hope that you feel better soon.

I've had quite a bit of dental work done lately. I've taken antibiotics, painkillers, barely eaten, etc. I'm due to get my bloods don't next week and I will be expecting it to be worse. I'm going to count this as a one off, you know? I know what caused it and it was absolutely necessary. Same thing with you, at least you can pinpoint it and go on, better from here. πŸ‘

It is working the first blood work I had done, my ALP was 157 ... after 1 month of Urso, it was down to 126 !!

I agree, try not to worry - always makes anything worse. It was just a blip and you will soon be back on track, and 'yes' your numbers were good … and will be again soon.

The only thing I would add, is that you ask for the GGT to be checked as well, as my Consultant thinks it's important (Especially - I think - in older women, which I am! So may apply less to you).

Take care, and treat yourself: have some fun, relax - always good for all autoimmune conditions.

I will ask him to run the GGT next time, thanks for the input !! πŸ™‚
