Avatar n tn I would tell your brother to abstain from alcohol, pain meds (tylenol), supplements, etc for one month and re-test blood including another Hepatitis panal. If liver enzymes are still elevated make appointment with a liver specialist (Hepatologist).
Avatar n tn t expect to get tested). Can alcohol mess up the results of the Elisa test? Can alcohol lower the antibody count so that the results are a false negative? I do not drink on an ongoing basis, but occasionally have a glass of wine with dinner. I may have had a full glass of wine the night before the test. Just don't recall.
Avatar n tn This is a very low blood alcohol level where the average individual appears normal.
Avatar n tn could a full 12 ounce glass of wine (10% alcohol) the night before the test cause false negatives. That is, could the alcohol reduce the antibody count? As I had not expected a blood test I didn't consciously decide not to have a drink and I just don't recall whether I did or not. The results of the test were as follows: The full name of the test given is: Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1/2 IgG & IgM AntiBODY w/ reflex to Type. 1- HSV Type 1/2 Combined Ab, IgG by ELISA ARUP 50286.
Avatar n tn I have never had an abnormal blood test but this time it seems like so much is out of range. All of these are out of range, (some by a lot). WBC 3.5, Segmented Neutrpphils 39, Lymphocytes 50, Absolute Neutrophil 1.4, Alkaline Phosphatase 36, NMR Lipoprofile w/lipids 1671, B12 is at 1621. My HDL is normal range 96, my HDL also normal range 84. What can all of this mean?
Avatar m tn Yikes!! That sounds just awful. My first blood test, I must have had a new nurse, because I ended up with a bruise all up and down my arm. All subsequent blood draws have been a much easier experience.
Avatar m tn I had a Fibrosure Blood Test and did not fast (i was told that i did not need to). I found out i was to fast for 10-12 hours. How does that affect the results??

Avatar n tn Gamma GT or Gamma-glytamyl transpeptidase (GGT) is an enzyme found mainly in the liver and is normally present in low levels in the blood. This test is used to detect diseases of the liver or bile ducts. Elevated GGT levels may be due to liver disease, congestive heart failure, alcohol, and many prescription and non prescription drugs.
Avatar n tn I had my blood test today and the results were 58/202. My GI doctor said my enzyme levels were high and want to do more test. Is this serious should i worry about Hepatitis??? My primary doc already said from the xray 7 month ago my liver looks swollen? but not to worry about...
Avatar m tn He will perform another blood test and if same results come back the same, we will move into a test that will login or the liver yo make sure that is normal. The doctor told me that is not high as where something serious can happen. I'm considered obesity, I have gained 25 pounds in the last 9 months or so. I haven't been eating healthy.
Avatar m tn Everytime i drink alcohol i see blood clot in my blood too, so I stopped drinking alcohol completely. To test if it was tanbaco that really irritated my bladder, i used some tanbaco after 3 weeks and the night after that there it was again I saw the blood again in my urine. After that It's been around 3 weeks that i avoided anything that could irritate my bladder. yesterday i did another urine analysis and there was still microscopic blood in my urine.

Avatar n tn He is getting another blood test saturday . Thanks any way !!
Avatar f tn I recently went into my local health department for a blood test. I noticed when the woman who was performing the test taking out the alcohol wipe from the package and rubbing it on my skin on the vein had cuts on her fingers and dried blood scabs. She did not have gloves on yet while doing this. I'm very concerned that the moistness of the alcohol wipe caused her cuts and scabs to become moist and wet and caused blood to become smeared on my skin by the vein.
Avatar f tn I went in to have blood drawn for my pregnancy test this morning. Surprisingly, I'm not as nervous as I thought that I would be at this point. I guess I am basically thinking...it is what it is. I don't have any control over this, and I did everything that I could possibly do - never drank a drop of alcohol, took my meds as directed and had several uncomfortable acupuncture treatments as well. ....so it was, is and will always be in God's hands.
