Re: Liver Enzyme Levels ???
The oncologist ran the other blood tests one for Vitamin D and a GGT. They both came back normal. My ALP is now 149. She wants me to go for a liver Ultrasound and bone scan. I am really scared that this has spread. I was Stage IIB with no lymph node involvement and did the 4 AC 12 Taxol/Herceptin and am now on Herceptin every three weeks. It's been almost a year since I was diagnosed. I was wondering does anyone know what the percentage is of people with no lymph node involvement and mets. I was thinking the Herceptin would prevent it from happening. I have a 12 and 15 year old and 2 grown children I need to be here for them. My son asked me the other day when I will be normal again. It is so sad. Just want it to go away.
