I was reciently hospitalized for high liver functions, all have returned to near normal except alanine transaminase which continues to climb one week ago it was 441 now it is up to 991.  I feel fine but have lost apetitle.  During the treatment for bloodpoisoning I had a bad reaction to the antibiotic and they have me aspertain IV, I dont know the doses but could that cause the number to climb & what should I do? They dont seem to know what to think about the single going out of range value.
Hi. Thanks for posting query at Chat Doctor. Its seems acute Liver injury. Usually ALT or AST values higher than \"two times the upper normal limit\", is considered abnormal (in some countries, ALT or AST values of more than 100 are considered abnormal). Viral hepatitis (HAD, HBV, HCV) are common cause of elevated liver enzymes. Typhoid fever may also affect liver and cause high liver enzymes. All these causes should be ruled out. Further advice
