What Causes Elevated GGT And ALP With No Medical History Otherwise?
Hi, My GGT reading is 243 and ALP 177 and have been high for 3 years. I don t drink alcohol, hepatitas ruled out, and I don t take any medications. My BMI is only slightly higher than it should be and I eat healthy foods 95% of the time. Any suggestions?
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. Your high levels of GGT and ALP with higher BMI indicates that you might be having gall stone disease. Kindly get your fasting lipid profile done along with ultrasound abdomen to know the status of gall bladder. Kindly take an opinion from Surgeon with the reports for further management. Hope the information provided would be helpful. Wish you good health.
