Hi! I Got A Medichecks Test Done And My Liver
Question: Hi!
I got a Medichecks test done and my liver gamma test are high, it’s 135
Last year I had this and it was at 79
A doctor had suggested that it could be fatty liver but I had no symptoms and didn’t hear from them again?
I do believe myself it’s fatty liver I am extremely overweight and my diet has been terrible over lockdown.
The only other tests that were of were my cholesterol which was slightly high.
My ferritin was at 151 which isn’t to high.
I was thinking of exercise and diet for a couple of months then testing again?
Would this be ok?
