sure why they can't get together! Why did she have bloodtests
done if shes fine? The ultra on the gallbladder was a good idea
to check biliary tract. GGT is test for what's happening to
liver function. 64 is not bad (5-60=norm). Alk-Phos 160 is up,
(53-141=norm) but this often gives false-pos #'s & is compared to a bigger picture. It can be off if smoking/ovary prob/bone
condition/hormones. EOS is really elevated at 20.3 (0-7=norm).
You didn't say her age. The EOS can go high from allergies/
skin condition/reaction to meds/parasites/asthma/adrenal gland/
immune system. An allergy to a med may go up to 60+ if tested
while response is going on. Compare what you can to her & make
sure she was fasting 12 hrs including smoking if applies. No meds. I'm guessing she's having a reaction to something like an
allergy that is effecting her immune system. There are bone
conditions that can mimic but they would be running more tests.
Perhaps it's her age & hormones throwing things off? I'd ask
her if you can go to next appt & show the mommy-concern to get
more answers. Maybe she knows & not saying? Gd-luck.
take care
