Who ran your liver enzymes? Have you seen that doctor recently?

If you know what you liver enzymes are then I assume you went to a hepatologist?
I would call right away to get to the next step.
Did you have a biopsy?
You need to speak to a reputable hepatologist right away and get the ball rolling.
I hope you feel better and take care of the HepC.

What is 9986? there are many factors. Do you know which test revealed that?
Go make the call.
GOOD LUCK

I have not a clue as to what 5.77 is. You need to get copies of all labs.
9986??

I am hoping that you have a GI - If your regular doc is not scheduling you into the emergency room - or immediately over to a GI/Hepatologist (a liver or internal organ specialist) Then I'd suggest going to see one immediately.

Looking that pregnant - with HCV --- means you need a lot of help.

Please make sure you find it.
