Liver Functions results.. looking to compare with other lifters

[JasonR]

Does this look normal to you?

ALT 47 (WHILE 37 IS UPPER LIMIT)
AST 29 IN RANGE
ALKP 102 IN RANGE
BILRUBIN 0.4 IN RANGE

What do you think ? any reason to be worried about the ALT ?

Question is ...is your doctor worried? When I have high liver enzymes I get a liver sonagram to look for dark spots.

[JasonR]

Good question, the answer is no.. 10 unit above normal isn't dangerous or anything, but it is abnormal, I was wondering if training 6 days a week can cause this ? I am off juice.

I wouldn't worry then, my doctor actually called me and had me come right in and get a sonogram, I cant remember what my numbers were, but I know I only had problems when I ran tren .

Good job on getting blood work done, it makes you sleep better at nite. haven't had insurance in about a year, so Ive been taking easy, again well done on getting things checked.

I would wait awhile before running anything again and watch oral meds, then before you go on again make sure your back leveled out. Vic, ibuprofen, naiads all kick the shit out of your liver.

well now that im on tren maybe i should go get myself checked out as an extra measure. Only thing i take is milk thistle and Liv52.
When i get my numbers ill dig up this thread later on and compare.
Is it common for insurance to cover this type of test?

These are my liver function results, this test was done half way into a moderate blast, of test deca dbol .
Tot bilirubin- 6 umol/l normal.
serum tot protein- 73gl/l normal.
serum albumin- 36g/l normal.
serum globulin- 36g/l abnormal ( 21-35).
serum alkaline phosphate- 62u/l normal.
ALT/SGPT 26u/l normal.
serum gamma GT level-40u/l normal.
Lipid profile was also normal except for serum triglycerides- 2.48mmol/l abnormal (0.85-2.00).

I have similar result like you ultrasound performed by my friend is normal. So itsfrom muscle. ALT is supposed to be specific for liver but is in muscle too, not much as AST but also is present.

One time I was checked and dont excercise before test for 4days and all was perfect middle normal range.

I performed 4 (yes each week one) liver test in past month.

ALT 0.78 0.91 0.68 0.76 range 0.1 - 0.83 ukat/l no excercise 0.43
AST 0.68 0.53 0.51 0.53 range 0.1 - 0.83 ukat/ no excercise 0.41
GGT 0.33 0.30 0.31 range 0.1 - 1.77 ukat/l no excercise 0.32

ALT half-life is 46hours
AST half-life is 17hours
GGT elevation indicate toxic damage to liver so this is importatnt marker of true liver damage!

So If you excersice 4-5times each week your ALT will be slightly elevated even you dont go to gym for 2days and If you are in gym each day your ALT will be out of range even fact that ALT isnt abudant in muscle but large muscle damage cause higher ALT activity in serum.

So from my side of view you are fine. But ultrasoud will make you completly calm.

[daem]

Defintely a great post!

I'll be posting the results of my blood work before I begin my winter cycle next month or in early December depending on how fast I can lose these last 10 lbs.

not to worry....but you should get to the dr if you start to turn yellow....actually you should go sooner than that....

but anyway....just do like bg said and take it easy on orals, tylenol, vicodin....etc..
