Your raised alkaline phosphatase is most likely because of your recent pregnancy. This enzyme grossly raises during pregnancy and may remain elevated for a year or more after delivery. So your level is high most probably for this reason.
Other causes of elevated ALP are liver diseases or bone disease which is unlikely in your case. It's not related to cardiomegaly, or arthritis, or amyladosis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Muhammad Zahir Shah, Internal Medicine Specialist
