Does Vitamin-D Deficiency Cause Increase In Alkaline Phosphatase Levels?
My Alk phos is 117 u/l... All other values are normal .. My bilirubin is 0.1 in fact. They found that my Vitamin D is very low.. It s 13. Could this be cause of Alk phos creeping up. Had breAst cancer in 2014 and mastectomy in 2015. Was declared NED but always worried about new cancer. Had bone scan and it was negative for mets. Just worried about lymphoma or other cancer

Hi
Yes, ALP rises in many diseases including Vitamin D deficiency.
Take tablet Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) 1000 IU PO once daily.
Increase milk intake, exercise regularly, have sun exposure daily as it increases vitamin D synthesis in the body.
Thank you for contacting HCM.
