I am FREAKING out now, after a few days the pain goes and the exhaustion goes after a few weeks! but she never said ONE thing positive to me, I even asked if the liver helas itself and she just looked at me blank and didn't say anything!

Seriously wish I didn't go there now!

There's no need to panic chilled. - I know it's scary but try and relax.
Lots of folks here have had all kinds of enzyme results.

If you want a discussion on your results, it's best to wait for the GP.

ER is usually about dealing with emergency situations, and not so much about bed side manner or detailed discussion.

I still think it was a good thing you went, not a bad thing

Deep breathing, my Man.

Strength to you. If you had not have gone, you would not have known? At least there's some clarity now. Faith and self-belief and prayer work miracles.

This is the best motivation you can have to assist with staying sober now. I know how much you have tried, and maybe this is now the signal that things need to change?

Don't let it scare you, please. The body is an amazing machine and with the right conditions can repair itself with ease.

Stay strong, please!

In my thoughts and prayers,
Bruce.
Hey, and those 100 Lions are waiting to walk with you. Just let them

Try not to panic. Bed side manner aside, there's not much he can tell you without an ultrasound. Blood tests basically just show how beaten up the liver is today. That's why doctors often take one test then give it a few weeks sober to take another to see how permanent that damage is.

Nobody can tell you how bad your liver is right now, but that doesn't mean it's the worst case scenario.

Glad you're out of the ER. Google liver healing for some anxiety relief. Don't Panic. That just heightens the stress problems.
