Re: Liver Function Test
It is really hard to know. Some liver function tests reflect changes as a result of chemo. I don't know if ALT is one or if Femara can be responsible for the change. Tests aside I hope you are feeling well. Wishing you the best.

Re: Liver Function Test
Jackie and Trish, thank you for your kind replies. I know it doesn't look good, but yes Trish I feel well, just terrified.
Next week CT scan will have the answer.
Thank you again for your support.
With love
Galina

Re: Liver Function Test
Hi all
Just let you know, the cause of elevated LFT had apparently not much to do with ca. I've been experimenting with some supplements while waiting for treatment. One of them I suspected could affect those figures and when I stoped taking it four days ago they just dropped.
Don't know what CT will show it's still sort of relief for now, thank God.
With love
Galina
