Blood Test results: Elevated Lymphocytes,ALT,AST,and LDH

[Study Patient]

I recently was rejected to be in a medical study after blood  test results came back out of the perameters of the test.I was informed I should see a doctor because my blood test results showed elevated levels of ALT(146),AST(56),LDH(199)and elevated lymphocytes(3.7).I tested negative for Hep B S Ag, Hep C Ab. I'm not a doctor and don't know what this means. I'll see a doctor soon to find out what this means, but if anyone could send me some information about this I would really appreciate it. I don't know if I should be extremely concerned about this or figure it to be a routine bump in the road. Thanks to anyone who can give me any information to work with.

To give some more background- You said in your first response that you didn't know if I was a drinker or used drugs. Some lifestyle info about me- When I was younger I would binge drink 2 or 3 times a month, now I enjoy an occassional drink(maybe 2 or 3 drinks a month),maybe 2 or 3 times a year I binge drink. I have experimented with hard drugs a few times, but never have used needles, I regularly smoked marijuana for about 10 years, now- maybe 4 or 5 times a year. I'm 31 years old and about 40 lbs. overweight. In general, I feel fairly healthy and feel that I take reasonable care of myself.I hope this gives you and anyone else that might have any information/questions something more to go on. Thanks for your responses. I really do appreciate anything anyone can tell me.

Yes we can, but only if we have stayed at a holiday inn express lately... Be careful its a crazy world out there.

Study,,,After reading your comments and the extra 40LBS could possibly be fatty liver and that will make your liver enzymes go up.  A biopsy would show if it is indeed fatty,,,Suggest this to your dr and see what his reply is.

Steve,,,a cure for hep,,,and free on top of it. haha Ok,,,I'm listening...

If its just for a fatty liver, Wouldn't a ct scan be what you would want? Not sure but there would be less risk to it.

Yes, I will see a doctor-good advice. I agree I should lay off the fried food,but I work as a Chef and I like fried food.What an internal struggle- to eat delicous fried food and get fat or stay away from delicous fried food and stay thin. I have been going to the gym lately- I've lost 20 lbs. in the last 2 months, maybe a good compromise- but will it make my hair grow back? Everyone told me just wait till you turn 30 you'll get fat and lose your hair.
