Extremely high Alkaline Phosphatase? HELP

[Nana4&cntn]

I have received my recent blood tests and the Alkaline Phosphatase levels are extremely high. Has anyone had any experience with this. Everyting I have found on the web is extremely scary!

Thank you in advance,
Kathy

Don't fret Kathy,I'm betting you had some drugs in your system that threw the test off.Go to the Medline info after you google :high alkaline phosphatase level,it will show all the drugs that can affect this test. And it also states the test is not accurate for diagnosing bone cancer or any such thing that might have you freaked.Did you fast before the blood test? I was told to not even chew gum before a blood test cause it can throw the results off.

If it's a sign of liver being damaged by some of your meds,then doc will switch the meds.In your case I hope it's that simple.

Good luck,Buttons
