Does Drinking Alcohol Affect ALT And AST Test Results?
Hi, I recently did a ALT and AST test where both level came back very high, I am not a heavy drinker at all, once a month could even be an exaggeration to how much I drink. But I the night before the test or the night before that, I had a very heavy night of drinking. Could drinking the night before the test affect my results?
