Mtraynor,

I'm sorry you are having so many problems and hope the investigations don't show any alarming results.

You can get advice and support about hyperparathyroidism from hyperparathyroid.org.uk/

Make sure that you get a full workup beyond focus on the tumor. You may have multiple things going on.

What kind of deranged liver results? AST, ALT, GGT, serum ferritin?

[Mtraynor in reply to Learner1]

Hi it's my ALT that's elevated I got good news today I don't have a tumour it was a lump of fat within the liver but ALT is still raised antibodies came back negative but consultant hasent ruled this out if ALT doesent settle he will take a biopsy to confirm if auto immuneincidental finding on CT shown a abnormality on the kidney So apart from knowing I haven't got a tumour I'm not much wiser

Thanks for your reply x

Are you taking a statin, which could raise your ALT level?

[Mtraynor in reply to SmallBlueThing]

No smallbluething my cholesterol is 7.2 but can't give me statins because of my liver function xx

Have you had your mouth ulcers checked for bullous pemphigoid (another damned autoimmune condition)?

Best wishes!

[Learner1 in reply to Mtraynor]

Have you looked for heavy metal or mold toxicity? Or infections, like herpes family, or c. or m. pneumoniae?

They could stress liver and/or kidneys.

Also, are you on a low fat, high carb, or vegetarian diet?

[Mtraynor in reply to Learner1]

On low fat diet but pre diabetic also so following advice from them I'm a wreck had a good couple of weeks TFT was optimum but slowly feeling it all again

Thanks for your reply x
