Elevated Liver Function

Does anyone know what this mean, my FH had a blood work done and they said he has elevated liver function and he needs to go back into the doctor, tomorrow, so of course i am thinking this is really bad.

Don't worry

I had elevated liver function when I had mono.... I'm sure some of the doctors and nurses on here can give you more info..

Is he on any type of medication that would do that? Cholesterol and acne meds can do that. Make sure he doesn't drink a drop of alcohol until they figure out what it is....

I know there are certain meds that can elevate the liver functions as well. Usually they just take you off of them and it goes back to normal. You can probably check webmd.com and see if they have any infor on there too!

He is on no medecines, they tested his blood, becaseu he is having shoulder pain and heart burn, so they checked for ulcers, and rhuethoid arthritis, and they found this!!!

I looked on web md, and all I saw was that it could be hepititis, or liver cancer. I hate looking on the computer, becaseu it makes you thinking about worse things.

Oh yes, I remember that!!!

He has always been tired though, he works at 3:00am and goes to bed a t10:30 at night, so I would be tired too!!!
