ALT and AST elevated but still in normal range

Posted , 2 users are following.

My recent blood work shows an increase in my ALT, AST adn total bilirubin. They are still in the normal range. My doctor does not seem concerned, but in 9 months the numbers have increased quite a bit.

ALT was 14, now 30.

AST was 19 now 25.

total bilirubin was 0.4 now 0.8.

Does anyone know why this would be?

    Just checked and your results are well within normal ranges so why did your Dr seem concerned?

      Doctor does not seem concerned... I was the one worried because the numbers have increased quite a bit in 9 months. I would expect little to no change from year to year.
