blood protein labs are off along with liver enzymes, should i be concerned?

Posted , 4 users are following.

I am a healthy female of average height and weight.  I exercise and eat healthy.  But for some reason, I always seem to get strange lab results, causing me to spend more  money and time to figure out that I am ok.

Just wondering if I really need to do more labs on this episode, as my doctor is asking for?  I had elevated liver enzymes 8 months ago.  I rarely drink.  They are starting to come back in range, but now my protein levels are low.  But the albumin is high and the gamma fraction is low?

I am very frustrated with strange results for NO apparent reason!!

any advice?
