Hi Rita

I don't know if this have any relevance to your situation, but does have to do with elevated liver levels.

Elevated Alkaline Phosphatase - I have elevate liver levels for years. My ex-GP kept asking how much alcohol I was drinking. She wouldn't believe me when I said I drank none. On further testing they found I had very mild fatty liver. No other liver damage. They say Sjogren's which I have can cause elevated liver levels. I am also having GP check me for Lupus and Paget's bone disease. My ANA was low but I was taking Steriods at the time for my asthma. Steriods can alter this test.

From my reading of elevated liver levels, it can also be altered by drugs. In my case, I am not taking any drugs that can cause it to be elevated.

My GGT another liver test was elevated after I had surgery (in March), and the doctor gave me medication that I was allergic too. After the medication was out of my system this test became normal again.
