Worried at results of Serum alkaline phosphatase 29 iu/L !

[Guest guest]

Hi Folks,

I am slightly worried about the above results, I know they are either

too high or low; but I do not know the range. Hopefully they are

abnormal just due to drug toxicity from thyroxine and if I can get off

this rubbish they will improve.

I did a search and it said high levels can be due to Pagets disease,

which is something to do with bones, or could be digestive probs, or a

fatty liver (am about 20 kg overweight!)

Will try to stop worrying, meant to be going out to Whitby for the day,

better tell hubby to get up lol!

Hi Ali,

I have requested a copy of all of my recent blood results and found

that I have marginally LOW alk phos (I think this is the same

measurement) at 47, The range for mine is 50-110. At the time this

was not highlighted, so I guess it's nothing to worry about for me.

I don't know what it means, although at the time i had the bloods

taken I had stopped thyroid meds as I was feeling toxic but yet had

low T3 and T4 and no high heart rate etc. maybe it is associated

with T4 toxicosis?

to add to my previous post, I did a search on low alk phos and one of

the causes can be hypothyroidism. Apparently most will ahve norml,

but some get low.

Hi Leah,

I think you could be right as at the time I did feel toxic, swollen

glands, headaches, palpitations, fatigue, muscle weakness, dizziness

etc etc. and I was on 125 mcg t4, then I reduced it myself to 100 mcg

and felt slightly worse for a period of a few days (lower back and

leg pain and weakness in legs), then I felt slightly better.

To be honest it does not surprise me the doc did not metion these

results, as I have lost faith in the Gp. and he would probably not

know what they meant anyway. Shall wait to see what Dr P says, try to

find out the range & continue doing some research.
