A lot of my LFT's are abnormal. What do they mean?
Posted , 4 users are following.
My ALT, AST, ALP, and GGT are all elevated. And my Lipase is lower than normal. I also have anemia and I have Franks Hematuria and Mucus in urine.
Anyone out there who can piece this together?

Do you drink much? The latter may be to do with an infection (antibiotics) or something to do with the kidneys.
What did your doctor say?
Whatever it is, you have a whole load of symptoms and I would imagine you would be referred to a gastro.

Oh I don't drink lol I forgot to say I am 18. And I'm gonna have a liver biopsy on Friday. My GI thinks it might be NAFLD but I read up on it and the amount of pain I'm in sounds like it's to severe of pain to be NAFLD. Thanks for replying though. And I don't smoke either.

Could be a number of things. But I have ALD, and I have gastroscopies, abdominal scans and reams of blood tests. My tests never come up with that range of things.
In my mind, you don't have a biopsy for NAFLD, you have an abdominal ultrasound scan or if you are in the US (which I think you might be), then a CAT/MRI scan.
Just before you're sedated for the gastroscopy, ask them what they are looking for.
