Joint pain

Posted By Terry on July 07, 1999 at 09:13:40
I should first say that my Lft's are normal but that I on occasion, experience rt. upper adbominal pain.  At one time, I had an elevated GGT which was do to a barbituate because it went back to normal once the drug was stopped.  My question is this, is joint pain associated with chronic hepatitis caused my drug ingestion?  Even with normal LFT's I am not sure there isn't something wrong with my liver because of my above stated symptoms.  I take an average of 4 grams of Tylenol daily and I worry that the symptoms I am having are due to a liver promblem. Incidently, I asked my Doctor for an ultrasound and it was within normal limits. My fingers are so stiff and tender in the joints in the morning.  I am worried.  What is your thoughts?
