What Steps Should Be Taken To Reduce The High Alkaline Phosphatase Shown In Blood Work ?
Yes, my blood work came back with high alkaline phosphatase and my red blood cell count at 3.65L I have had a blood test already to tell if I have liver cancer and it was Neg, however, what steps should I take to get well or get my Phosphatase back to normal, ifany?
Hi, Actually high ALP level can be due either hepatic( liver) cause or any bony disease. To look for any hepatic cause , you require your liver function tests, Ultrasound of hepatobiliary system etc. To look for extrahepatic causes to might might require X Ray of bones & hormonal analysis. Meanwhile you can continue taking normal healthy diet.Hope it helps.
