I told him I had been taking AAS but it was only he and I in the room and I said that was off the record, if it ever showed up in my records I would deny it and file a complaint with the medical board. He's been my doctor for years, so I'm not worried about that I just threw it out there so he'd know how serious I am about things I tell him 'off the record'. I want him to have a full tool box, not playing a guessing game based on lies or omissions. He appreciates that. However, back to the subject at hand.... He said he wouldn't be concerned unless it stayed that high for a long time (I get tests every 3 months when cycling and every 6 months when not). He also said if either number got near 400 he'd worry and that he has cirrhosis patients that are regularly in the 1000+ range so 200 given the circumstances was not that big of a deal. He didn't know what the hell trenbolone was but he knows I know my shit when it comes to pharmaceuticals so I have him a short synopsis and told him I was certain it was responsible for the elevated enzymes. He just said come back after you stop taking it and a few months have passed then we'll reassess. I was back to 40ish after 8 weeks off cycle. Point is, my numbers as I said are routinely around 40-50 which he attributes to my diet and training. I have had many abdominal ultrasounds focused on liver and pancreas, a few MRI's and about 6 CT scans. I'm in great health according to my gastroenterologist and my pcp. Even after that bad episode of pancreatitis, which screwed my liver enzymes pretty bad for awhile. You're most likely just fine. Keep getting tested periodically and work closely with your doctors. I'm big on internal organ maintenance reviews. Most people get their vehicles diagnosed far more than their bodies. Tsk tsk!
