Concerned with blood test?
Had blood tests done other day and everything came back normal, apart from the liver function which I need to go back and repeat bloods in 6 weeks should I be concerned?

Normally slightly elevated liver enzymes are repeated weeks apart to see if they go back down again when no obvious cause is apparent at the time. You make no mention of why you had to the test done in the first place which makes a more complete interpretation as to what is going on less than ideal but your doctor is aware of the circumstances involving your liver enzymes and sees a possibility that they might go back down in 6 weeks. I would avoid Tylenol and alcohol to avoid stressing the liver until then.

Make sure you repeat your blood test ASAP and go to a doctor yes you shouldn't ignore anything from a blood test

Lol last comment hello well hopefully I can put mind to rest a little bit, I'm 26 male don't drink, smoke or any bad habits I recently had blood tests and my liver enzymes was 90 when they were meant to be between 50-65 anyway I went back after 6-8weeks and it was raised to 150, they did more blood tests on the liver function several tests all came back normal and I will have a scan next month, along as the other tests have come back normal in the bloods and the other 4 liver functions are ok shouldn't be anything to worry about I was told cause the other readings on liver show bile ducts, white blood cells etc. to determine more serious problems doctor told me enzymes are very commonly raised and if the bile duct shows no increase they said this means there is no blockage or gore stones etc. meaning if it was anything serious there would be an increase of pressure hope that makes sense al the best.
