Elevated Liver Enzymes

[SaintKenn]

So I went to the doctor this past Tuesday and had some bloodwork done, just a standard yearly physical. Yesterday evening, my doctor called and informed me that my liver enzymes were high. My AST is 351 and the ALT is 164. He started naming off things that could cause this and really freaked me out. I've just recently in the last two weeks began working with a personal trainer and he put me on a high protein/low carb diet. I've been taking creatine and 40g of protein powder a day, along with Gat Jetfuel t-300. I worked legs pretty furious the morning of the bloodtest and I'm hoping I'm just worrying over nothing. Any one in here with any input?

AST and ALT are elevated for up to 10 days following intense exercise. Make sure your doctor knows that you worked out the morning of the blood test.

You need to take 5 days off from training and re-test. Let your physician no your plans, if he does not agree, find a new physician. Exercise falsely elevates AST and ALT. Was your alk phos okay? Bilirubin? Do you have a copy of your values?

Could be from countless reasons, I wouldn't say that anything you are doing is of concern.

As with anything, keep under your doctor's supervision and keep an eye on it because you simply never know.

OP, did you speak with your doctor, curious what he said.
