Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband had a routine check up and his liver enzyme came back at 490. Tested for Hepititus and it s negative. He went back in for a re test and now it s 166. This was three days later, now they want a sonogram of his liver. What can he do to lower this event more? He doesn t drink but occasionally and stopped that couple months ago. Eats healthy and recently started working out at a gym.
Good morning I am sorry to hear about his ill health Elevated alt indicates liver problem and it can be due to drugs or fatty liver So I would suggest to identify any such drug if any and stop it. Fatty liver is commonly associated with obesity and diabetes mellitus which needs to be treated for reduction in liver enzymes Hope this would answer your question Wish him speedy recovery
