high AST / ALT levels 85/231

[k3yrltr]

 I had some bloodwork done to check to see if I have a yeast infection cuz super tired and headaches for 1.5months, but my liver/kidney numbers came back really high. AST was 85 and ALT was 231.... I figured they would be elevated cuz started a steroid cycle 2.5 wks ago and dbol and winni v (pills) are taxing on liver/kidneys along w 2injectables but didnt think it would be that high. Is that super dangerously high? Thank u

Hello and hope you are doing well.

The liver enzymes like you mentioned could be raised due to medications. Alanine aminotranferease (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) are enzymes located in liver cells that leak out into the general circulation when liver cells are damaged. AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) are sensitive indicators of liver damage or injury. Normal values for SGOT is 0-35 and SGPT is 4-36, once you stop the medications it should normalize, recheck after four weeks.

A GFR of 90 - 120 mL/min is normal.  Levels below 60 mL/min for  greater than three months are a sign of chronic kidney disease.  Please follow up and discuss this with your doctor am sure he will provide further assistance.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
