Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
today my doctor told me my immunoglobulin is 5. I am a 51 y/0 female smoker, 180, diabectic, high bp and cholesterol. My liver function test was 36. I was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I was told in 1997 that my bloodwork profile looked like leukemia, but never told that again. What do my results mean? I am 5 ft 2 barely.
Usually ALT or AST values higher than "two times the upper normal limit", is considered abnormal ( in some countries, ALT or AST values of more than 100 are considered abnormal).
Value of AST or ALT greater than 85 or above maybe investigated further.
i am not sure what does "36" represent in your question. if its ast or alt value, then its normal.
wish you good n sound health regards Dr Tayyab Malik
