What Causes Tiredness And Drowsiness While ALT Levels Are Elevated?
I have ALT levels around 74. I got an ultrasound for my liver and the doctor said it looked pristine. All three heptatitis's were checked for and the tests came back negative. They told me that I need to go see a specialist for liver functions. I'm also extremely tired all of the time. I can sleep ten hours at night and still take a 3-4 hour nap during the day (sometimes more) and still be tired. What could I have?
