What Is The Reason For Having 110 Gamma GT In The Blood Test?

I have recently had a blood tests and have been given a score of 110 for my Gamma GT, I do not drink alcohol and am not on any medications. What else could have caused this? I am now being told that I will have to have a liver scan which is worrying for me.

Welcome at HCM...
I have gone through your query and being your doctor I completely understand your health concerns...
What is your age? Have you tested for gamma GT before? Are the level increasing?
Raised level of this enzyme signifies that something wrong with the liver excretory function
In my opinion you should Get your complete liver functions tests done.
Also you should be screened for viral liver infections along with metabolic liver diseases too. It would be better to get your liver ultrasound for the liver texture.
So meet hepatologist for proper workup so that appropriate management can he started in time..
Hope your query is adequately answered...
Stay safe
