HELLO LUCY!
I am so sorry you are sufferring.
Alt and Ast are liver enzymes. I have no idea what else you are sufferring.
Mine were high at one time but we discovered it was from taking so much tylenol.
Right now I am working with a Gastro doctor and not real happy with him, but thats the way it goes with some patient, doctor relationship.
Do you see a gastro doctor?
Let me hear from you .
God bless you,
Dorothy

I am 37 and a good drinker. When I went to get blood drawn of cours I ahd a few beers the night before. Not many,. I guess I dont really drink that much. Can alcohol the night before cause slightly elevated results. They were something like ast 95 alt 93 ish. What are your thoughts?
