I am a healthy 52 year old women and I just had my annual check up and my doctor called me and said my liver enzymes were high. My GGT is 203, AST is 43 and my Alkaline Phosphate is 203. I am going back for another blood test, she is checking for Primary Biliary Cirrhosis. I don t know anything about this disease and the info on line was pretty scarey. What else could cause elevated enzymes? What do you know about PBC?
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have elevated GGT and alkaline phosphatase levels.  It suggests homeostasis.  Some injury or stasis in biliary tract can lead to this. In primary biliary cirrhosis there is bile stasis and cirrhosis. You should go for complete liver function test with ultrasound abdomen.  Search for the cause and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
