Pbc, they put me on ocaliva earlier this year along with urso, apparently I'm not responding to either, ..my alkaline phosphatase fluctuates from the 120s to 161 every test, is there anything I can do food wise or herbal to lower this? I hate pills lol

Hello, I am reading so much about bloodwork. I've had alot of the basics. CBC, metabolic panel, full thyroid panel, etc. I am not on any medication. Should I ask for the following: • Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (Bone ALP or BALP). • Osteocalcin. • Urinary N-telopeptide of type I collagen

So I read somewhere after googling can cancer be detected on regular CMP panel because I had a CMP panel in October 2021 (normal) and then X-rays in January 2022 (also normal).

I’m worried.. I’ve been on Urso for 3 months, my ALT and AST came back normal but my Alkaline Phosphatase increased from 220 to 240….really confusing. Any advice or information would be appreciated.

I just started Urso last month, and had blood work done last week, the other enzymes dropped a lot to normal range, but Alkaline Phosphatase is still higher than normal, around 187, not much change. I have 2 questions, 1. Anyone else with type O or B blood notice higher ALP if you aren't fasting?
