Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I m an 18 year old female and had a blood test done due to continuous abdominal pain. When the results came back it showed that my liver enzymes were extremely elevated. My SGOT levels were 159 gm/L (normal is ranged to be 5-43), ALT levels at 270 (normal is ranged to be 10-58), and Alk Phos levels at 131 (normal is ranged to be 45-125). I ve had an ultra sound done, looking at my liver,spleen,stomach,gallbladder and right kidney looked at. Everything seemed to come back normal however they don t have an explanation for my elevated liver enzymes. Could there be something else going on with me?
Hi. Thanks for your query. You have a continuous abdominal pain and the tests of Liver Functions are elevated. Ultrasonography of the abdomen is normal. The history indicates that you have other cause of pan in abdomen which has to be confirmed or ruled out. Ultrasonography of the abdomen and pelvis does not show much of the intestinal diagnosis.
I would advise you to consult a Gastroenterologist or a general Surgeon to have clinical evaluation and actual physical examination to find the cause of the pain and get further investigations of the MRCP or CT scan of the chest.
Further treatment will be as per the findings. I hope this answer gives an idea about the present problems.
