Is A GGTP Level Of 6 Low?

My GGTP level came back at a 6. The range is 0-65. Isn't 6 kind of low or at the low end of the range?



I am 38 and I had a stomach bug about a month and a half ago and ever since haven't been able to eat much of anything without being in alot of pain either in my intestines or my stomach. My Doctor ran several tests and of course everything is within "normal" range. I was looking at the results and the GGTP seemed kind of low.

hi.
thanks for posting query at HCM.

GGT 6 is normal , NOTHING to worry
secondly, you may need to repeat the test to confirm if the stomach bug is completely eradicated. incomplete eradication maybe causing the discomfort.

hope to answer concern.

wish you good and sound health
for further queries, you may post a direct question to me via HCM portal.
