Julie,
I had a similar experience with my alk phos elevating after the completion of chemo. It was checked every 3 months or so with my other liver enzymes. The others always remained normal but the alk phos jumped around from high normal to 10 or so points above. Bone activity can elevate the alk pnos and I had a lot of bone loss due to chemo induced menapause. I had a DEXA bone density test done which showed the rapid loss (osteoopenia). Once the bone activity settled down my alk phos has stayed in the normal range.
