What Causes Elevated Liver Counts?
My husband had a routine blood test that showed elevated liver counts. He went for more blood tests -GGTP, TSH and Surf AG, and we are waiting for the result. An ultrasound is scheduled in a few days..
He has gained a lot of weight in his abdomin (which is hard as a rock and now extends from his chest to his belt) He was a 34 waste and is now 38. He also takes naps due to fatigue.He just got over a long cold only to get another one. What does this sound like to you? Also, he does drink a lot of wine and doesn't really eat a lot of food to gain the stomach weight he has.
