raised alk phos....
14 Answers
I got some blood results back today and they said that my alk phos levels were raised. I had a quick google and noticed that this has to do with liver function. My last round of blood work they said that my liver function was abnormal but then said it was fine with a follow up blood test.
This is beginning to worry me now, especially because they don't want me to go back until October to get more blood tests =s
So yeah, my question.... Has anyone else had similar results? Just want to know what is going on.

So have you had any "bugs" recently which might explain the change to your liver function?
I think that if it was anything serious they'd have you back before October.

I've got a bit of a tummy bug just now but I had my blood taken last Wednesday. I'm always catching things from the kids at work so maybe I did have a touch of something.
I know i'm being really over dramatic but my uncle passed away a few months ago from cancer of the bile duct. The results I got could be caused by a blockage of the bile duct. I'm such a hypochondriac!! Just ignore me lol!!

I don't know about the other liver function tests, Sqad. I went to the doctors about my hair falling out... You answered my question on that as well. I think she was just wanting to be thorough so she tested just about everything.
About medication... I take naproxen once a day for an inflamed tendon in my shoulder and cetirizine for allergies. I came off the pill earlier this year as well.
