Low ALT Levels, Ultrasound Normal, Weight Loss. What Could It Be ?
Hello Doctor, This is the third time I have had blood work done and still my ALT is 81 lower then first two times which were 91 and 92. My AST is 36. I have been referred to see GI specialist and to mention that my ultrasound was normal and negative to hepatitis . In the month and half I have lost some weight going from 153 to 139 and have been drinking dandelion roots tea. What could it be?
