I just had a blood test and was told my AST is 70 and my ALT s 36. I know this deals with the liver and I am scheduled to have a liver scan. I have noticed brown spots on me, have abdominal pain and frequent diarrhea. I also have had sever pain in my lower extremities..joints and muscles. Is it possible that I have liver damage?
Those tests on your liver are only mildly elevated and though it is possible you have liver damage it is not necessarily so. Sometimes when the AST is higher than the ALT, the liver irritation could be from alcohol so I would stop alcohol totally if you Chat Doctor.
