Alkaline Phosphate Blood Test

[Beth]

I have had an increased alkaline phosphate count for the last two years.  I'm looking for an answer as to what may be causing it.  I'm 30 years old and my count is 167 with a Liver SGOT result of 16. Recently I tested positive for Rhumeatoid Arthritis (nodules only,wonder if it could be related to growth of the nodules.) I have also been Diabetic for the last 6 years - gestational induced and on the pump 8 months. I know I have a "fatty liver" as well. Any thoughts/opinions you may have on what may be causing it will be appreciated.   Also, is this something that should be causing me a high level of concern?

What does a 138 ALK leven indicate?  My AST is 44/ my ALT is 58 - 62 female - no problems other than edema in left foot.  Thanks!

My daughter has been diagnosed with Familial mediterranean fever. She has a positive rhuematoid factor. In addition to her usual symptoms of fever,joint,stomach,and chest pain,she is now having severe muscle spasms. She has been on colchicine for 6 months. She is 8 and 65 pounds. Recently, we had her blood work done and her phosphate was high. She also has had two urine tests in th past two months the first had protein and the second was fine. Could you please tell me why her phosphate would be high? I would appreciate any information you have . Thank-you.

I am interested in knowing if this problem can be due to a blood clot at a previous time?  My father has just discovered he has a high level of alkaline phosphate.

I am 24 year old male.

I have a back pain for last two years now. I went to doctor and they did blood test. My alkaline phosphate is high, its 460 U/l

I am having a contineous back pain problem, Is this because of this alkaline phosphate?

I am very much worried, I am a non alcohalic. Is it still possible that I can have liver problem????

What should I do to have some relief from my back pain or to reduce the level of alkaline Phosphate??

And Why this alkaline phosphate level is high in blood test?

I will really appreciate if you could answers the above questions.

Thanks
