I requested a vit D blood test and was given the form for a liver profile at the same time. No results from the vit D test yet but had to go back for a retest on the liver profile today. My ALT is elevated, 89u/L (7-35), all others are in normal range.
My doctor seems to always err on the side of over medication of levothyroxine, regardless of what is wrong! Can levothyroxine cause elevated ALT? If I am dropped to 100mcg it's slightly low, on 125mcg it is slightly high, but I feel no better on either, hence my request for vit D.
It is the second time this year I have had elevated ALT, the first retest showed a drop and so wasn't followed up. (I never did see the actual results though).
If not levothyroxine, what else could it be?
Many thanks in advance,
