Introducing myself

Recieved a liver transplant Thanksgiving day 2016. Was doing well until at a regular 3 month lab ALP jumped from 150 to 450. Hepatologist already knew I have an ANA marker. Had a MRCP which showed NO cirrhosis and bile ducts all looking good.Recieved a liver transplant Thanksgiving day 2016. Was doing well until at a regular 3 month lab ALP jumped from 150 to 450.
