What Does This LFT Report Indicate?
Friend has Billirubin result of 5.7, AST 1,571, and ALT result of 1,862. Pancreatic enzymes normal. GGT is 600. She had a CT Scan this morning. Her eyes have been yellow for 7 days now but are darker today. She is at work nauseous and exhausted. I am very worried and have asked her to call her Doctor immediately as he could pull up the CT. IS THIS URGENT AND SHOULD SHE GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM.
