Suggest Diagnostic Test For Pain In Liver

Hi I have been having pain in my right side (liver area) I had a blood test last week and now have a letter from my GP to get another test. This test has a LFT again, also Gamma gt and all phos. Would like to know what this means and should I have concern at this stage.

Many thanks

hi.

noted history of abdominal pain and liver concerns. it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a gastroenterologist or a general surgeon, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. it may be of hepaticopancreaticobiliary tree problem, such as liver cysts, gallstones or other gallbladder disease. diagnostica (such as ultrasound, complete blood count, etc.) and management (medical and/or surgical if indications are found) will be directed accordingly.

hope this helps.

good day!!
