Hi All

I went to the hospital yesterday and they told me the Liver Blood Test was high and have reduced the MX, the AST jumped from 21 to 70 and the ALT 15 to 98, do I need to worry? To make matter worse I had to have my cat put down due to a Liver tumour, what a day!!!!!

    Oh dear muffy, it's not a good time for you all round, yes? Personally I think that you need not worry, this is the whole point of the regular blood testing as this picks up problems early enough for them to be dealt with and this proves their value. Reducing the meth is a good starting point, when have they called you in for another test? DD

    Hi muffy

    Try not to worry, they have reduced your meth to try to help your liver. Hopefully it will now get back to normal.
    Take care
