Zach had his preop stuff today and i'm concerned cause his liver function tests are elevated. .

If anyone who knows please help me figure this out

bun 20 norm 7-10

creatine .5 norm .5-1.3 they have it marked as high

ast 55 15-37

alkaline phosphate 259 norm 50-136

bun/creat 40 norm 6.7-23.9

platelets went from 103-150 so they have it as significant change but only seems to be if he is in crisis .

Only thing I can offer any info on is the AST. While it may seem high and that's how it's marked 55 isn't really that bad. I've been told they don't get concerned until it's around 100. Sophie's AST and ALT were both almost 600 in Jan when hers were done (repeat this past Monday so I don't have more recent levels). After running a test called GGT that was normal they told me that it wasn't actually her liver it had to do with muscle breakdown. The BUN and creatinine are indicators of kidney function. I hope this helps.
