Hi All,

    Hi Stewart there are many facets to the LFT so first off getting one raised will not be too much of a problem depending on which one, I'm guessing it will be your GGT and this can be raised for loads of reasons including yoy having a drink the night before so please try not to worry, I'm thinking your somewhere other than UK as Here they would say restest in 3 months

      That is not the end of the world either as with diet you can turn that around pretty quickly as in months with a change of diet and weight loss.

      I think that's your problem pre diabetes is quite common nowadays but like I said very reversible.

      So yes you are over thinking it, so why do you think hepatitis

      My saying is don't build bridges before you need to cross the river, hopefully the person you participated with was std free, worse case scenario would mean you need treatment but it would mean when caught early the outcome is good

      Hi Alexandria,

      My ALT, Cholosterol and glucose were abnormal....They have told me not too worry about it as the doc thinks that it is fatty liver

      That explains a lot, you are obviously going to have to change your diet and lose weight and that should in time bring that back in line, fatty liver is reversible so don't worry and he would have had you seeing an hepotolologist pretty quick if he was really worried, off you go to gym LOL

      Alex thanks for you support mate, Seen the doc today LFT 125 she was not concerned.... Cholesterol was 7.4 she wanted to start me on Stinlits or something...I declined and said Diet and Gym and see where I am in a months time....She said Hep is not a concern as everything else apart from my sugar is fine.

      In a nutshell I am a Fat Bas***d and need to loose weight quick and fast.

      Thanks again for your support
