Sorry to start another post but are we talking just about the bilirubin OR did they test AST & ALT (transaminases) also?? Any inflammation of the liver??

Going over in my head and notes about a few friends whom had to battle the liver issues (MichelleH, Nicola, Lily and two close friends of the family). These questions are pieces to a puzzle, kinda like the entire journey we are all on. Maybe it will also help with replies on this post. Ughh!! I will be following Mom as she tries to shake this problem!>>Believe51

PS: Special prayer for you tonight, I know how you must be feeling dealing with this all. To some extent anyway, this is your Mommy we are talking about. Hang tough Friend and let us know what we can do to help!
