[luki7788]

does this mean that you have finished working with my doctors that you are asking here?

i had MRI and CT both with contrast


neither showed cirrhosis so im not worried about that



not doing any aas besides test from now on either

That's good to hear. Do you drink at all? I know I used to hit the Bourbon pretty hard and my numbers would start to look like Ass.

why has noone asked how long ago OP has trained before the blood test?
alt and ast are not liver specfic but also enzymes found in muscle.
if youve had an intense session the day before they will most likely be elevated due to muscle damage

I mentioned that, indirectly. I've never seen training raise AST / ALT as much as OPs numbers though.

Agreed but usually training doesn’t increase ALT/AST to that degree. The only time I saw mine so high was when I was running Superdrol back in 2012. Thankfully it did no permanent damage because my recent GGT level was 11

Nobody asked because @Fleezy has been getting bloods for years - he knows not to train, to be well hydrated, etc.

Well funny thing is.. I didn’t actually schedule the liver panel. It’s just part of my regular checkup.

I was going in to get my prolactin, progesterone, and dhea tested

and they pulled the liver panel and cbc without me requesting it

I trained 2 days before this draw

I imagine I may have more questions after my surgery

I do not drink at all

Dude they are going to be a better resource then anyone on this board. There are some smart guys here no doubt, but I personally would be grateful to have them(dr) and listen to them. I can only tell you what I know my Dr would do as I know her pretty well. But I might not be right and do not know shit compared to these guys. Don't waste a valuable resource like this. Not trying to be rude or anything just offering some advice. I get the feeling you might have just wanted to talk about it as maybe you are nervous and that is understandable. Goodluck on your surgery man if you need someone to talk to you can always dm me anytime!

I’ve been in contact with them regarding my adenoma

I’ve just had so much on my mind lately that they had slipped my mind

GGT is a better test / indicator of true liver health. AST / ALT can be impacted by a lot of other things.

My thinking as well,,,GGT is a much better testing indicator.

That happens to me. I have to take a week off of the gym to get my levels into range.

but to the degree that mine are out of range?

 

[Fleezy]

just requested an order for a GGT test

How were your creatinine and bun? I assume in range?

How were your creatinine and bun? I assume in range?

those didn't get tested.

creatinine has always been in range.

BUN slightly elevated due to perpetual dehydration.




on a related note, just got word back from @luki7788 's physicians. they gave me guidance on which liver supplements to restock on


we will be following up tomorrow morning (for me, later in the evening for them due to time zone differences)

Was there a chem panel pulled?

 

[Fleezy]

Was there a chem panel pulled?

a metabolic panel? no

what would this information indicate?

 

[Stewie]

Curious to see what your estimated osmolality may have been. As well, your albumin.
