Should I Be Worried About The Elevated AST And ALT Level?
Is it normal to have elevated AST (98) and ALT (153) levels in blood test (of 66 year old male who had triple coronary bypass surgery 2 months ago)? He feels fine, is doing cardiac rehab. He also had third degree burns up and down his back and legs due to the fact that he was on the very hot asphalt for 20 minutes while being resucitated two months ago after cardiac arrest. He had skin graft surgery on August 22nd, and transplants are healing well.
