[|Human|] My Cardiogist had blood work done that included a liver/hepatic panel. My results were: AST-26, ALT-21, ALK-108, /ilirubin, total-.05, Bilirubin, Direct-.04, Albumin-4.0, Total Protein-6.7 and GGTP-177. He did not mention these results but I saw the lab marked the GGTP as being high. I do not drink and I was wondering if this is too high. I was also put on Pravastatin 40mg daily due to high cholesterol (241 total and 31 HDL; triglyceride was high at 262 down from 491). Thank you Brian Marsh

Your GGPT level is high which is commonly high in damage due to alcohol, but this is not only one cause of high level of GGPT. The enzyme is present in liver and pancreas hence it can rise in hepatitis, cirrhosis, liver tumors, myocardial infarction, heavy or chronic alcohol use, pancreatic cancer and pancreatitis and viral infections such as Epstein-Barr, cytomegalovirus (CMV). There are few Chat Doctor.  In fact Cholesterol lowering
