ALT & ALK exceptionally HIGH. Feeling very very anxious.
Hi, New here - this is my first post - hope all is OK. My ALT & Alk. Phos blood test have, ‘gone thru the roof’! I have been having monthly blood checks on the liver since April last year – numbers slowly reducing. My last monthly LFT was end of October, 2021 results being at the high end of normal -

Pain
I have excruciating pain in my left shoulder blade exactly like a gallbladder attack, however my gallbladder was removed 2.5 years ago. My liver aches and since yesterday I've had a stabbing pain in the appendix area. Any ideas why?

Deranged bloods, no fatty liver no fibrosis
A little further down my road of tests, in summary I have no symptoms but it all started with a cholesterol test of 8.9, gp said it could be liver related as it’s too high to be diet. Had liver bloods and ALT was high at 150. Repeat test and ALT was 350.Refer to liver specialist, just had ultrasound

Is this Terry’s nails ??? Please help.
I’ve stumbled across Terry’s nails and now I can’t stop worrying. I had tested positive for covid 7th October 2021 and was feeling a little unwell, I would say symptoms were mild - I had blood tests done after and all came back fine apart from slightly raised enzymes in my liver function test. Doctors

Help I am terrified
I went for pre op bloods on Wednesday, I was due to have a gastric bypass on Saturday. The Dr called and postponed it yesterday as my LFT's are abnormal, my ALP 295, ALT 200 and gamma GT 793!!! He says i need to see a liver specialist and can't have surgery until it sorted. I am so upset and terrified

I mentioned to GP and she ordered some more blood tests. In the meanwhile I have had a hysterectomy almost

Faolure to book MRCP/cholangiopathy
In June I had an ERCP to remove a stone stuck in my bile duct. Afterwards I was told that my bile duct was suspicious for cholangiopathy and the ducts to/in my liver looked narrowed. They said that I may have an autoimmune liver condition and they were booking an mri/mrcp which would be about 4 weeks

Acid ursodeoxycholic and Fenofibrate for PBC
Hiya! An internist suggested that mixing the urso with fenofibrate has shown good results for patients with PBC. I was recently diagnosed with PBC overlap AIH. Are any of you talking it together? Any insight that you could share with me?
