Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I recently had a routine blood test that showed my GGT level as elevated (83 - test said 0-60 is normal). My Eos (Absolute) was also elevated (0.5 - normal listed as 0.0-0.4). All other tests were within normal range. I don t take any medications and I don t drink alcohol. Should I be concerned?
Hi, Mild isolated elevation of GGT alone is nothing serious. And again eosinophils with minor elevation is nothing to worry. Its probably because of the type of blood sample taken for evaluation. For example even when you haven't taken adequate water before blood test, then concentrated blood can also cause these spurious elevations
