[|Human|] hi I have had a blood test for liver function etc and it has come back with raised billirubin - so have repeated it but in a non urgent request from my surgery - i have been worried about my alcohol intake (female aged 55) but have since stopped drinking alcohol - could it be connected and if it was serious would my doctor have summoned me in to see him?  just a bit worried.Many thanks in advance for your adviceCordy
[|AI|]  HelloThanks for writing to ChatDoctorYou need complete liver function test before starting any medicine.LFT includes GOT, SPOT, Total bilirubin, GGT, Total protein, Alkaline Phosphatase. Since you have alcohol history, this test is needed along with routine hologram. Ultrasound of abdomen should also be done. Urine RE/ME should also be done. Viral markers should also be done in altered LFT. Take Care Chat Doctor.
