Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase level
I had a blood test conducted by my GP surgery. One of the test, not my normal profile, was this: Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase level (XaES3) 118 iu/L [reference range 0 - 59] I do understand that it's a liver test, and my other LFT's were normal. Any incite to the meaning of this test in respect

liver ast/alt
Good day, i recently got Bloodwork done. My billirubine was raised 71u/mol and AST 81. My ALT was 25, GGT normal and ALP also. I was a binge drinker for 15 years. Never drank daily. My fear is cirrhosis, with the ast alt ratio. Have had 2 ultrasounds that were complete normal and 1 MRI with out contrast

A really long post, I’m sorry.
Hello, this might turn into a ramble, so apologies in advance. My husband was diagnosed with F3/F4 Bridging fibrosis about 6 weeks ago. It’s been a very emotional and scary few weeks made worse by lots of googling! I found this forum this week, and since reading, feel a lot more positive going forward

Hi Taar
A couple of years ago when I was particularly unwell, my 1st paracentesis was scary, a bit unknown. The pain reducing injection was was a sharp sting, but nothing worse. Insertion of the the drain tube felt "uncomfortable" but nothing worse. During the drain over several hours they also replenished

recent kidney transplant
June 27, 2023 Just 10 weeks ago I had a living kidney donor transplant. Looking for advice as far as lab values when they’re not normal or things that sound concerning such as a rise in antibody numbers. I wondered how they treated that and how difficult it was to get things stabilized. I appreciate

Some advice re draining fluid?
11m post transplant. Had a clinic at QE today. Not feeling too good, feeling tired, bloated etc. Have gained about 8-10kg since March. They (bless 'em) fitted me in for an ultrasound, and found "pockets of free fluid." Is this the same as ascites? Can you get ascites after transplant...? Didn't

Advice on medication
Over the last couple of weeks I have had pains in my stomach and for longer than that regular bladder problems. Always feeling I need to go to the toilet. I am on 3.5 mg of prednisolone and am wondering if it has anything to do with the other pills I am taking each day. 1 -20 mg omeprazole, 1 - 1000

Ultrasonographer said fatty liver and nothing sinister
He then said he couldn't say more and I had to discuss with my GP to decide if further tests were necessary. This arose because I have osteoporosis and my ALP was elevated at 198. They checked my GGT which was 54 and ALT 44. This was on 26th July. Checked again 9th August and ALP 196, ALT 40 and

Starting Home Dialysis-Advice?
I received a kidney transplant in 2014 and now I need another one. I had never been on dialysis before but now I have to go on. I have elected to do dialysis at home. I'm nervous about every part of it from doing it correctly to the amount of space I will need to store materials to whether or not I will

PBC or fatty liver
Does this sound like fatty liver or PBC? I was diagnosed 9 years ago with mild fatty liver. They were checking for PBC because I had a ama m2 of 69 and a mildly elevated Alt. I lost weight and my Alt came down. US showed an enlarged liver and biopsy showed only mild fatty liver. I went back to Hepa last

CLL itching
I am convinced that my constant itching problem is a direct result of my condition. Itching has increased over the years and now constant . My only relief is alcohol and THC laced Gummies . All other suggestions would be appreciated .

My husband received a kidney transplant from a deceased donor last month. He is doing well. Hopefully it will continue that way.
