The Primary said these HIGH results on my bloodwork could very well be from my body reacting to the medications (my ALT was 73 what was yours). He was very surprised because my bloodwork is always so good. He is going to repeat next month and I also see the ID next month and have to do bloodwork for him as well (my poor veins LOL). They are really monitoring this closely but I am currently still on the same strength and 7 days a week meds schedule. Once I see ID that could change. I am going to my first appointment at NJH May 2nd and really looking forward to it.

My pulm just wrote me that often at first on the antibiotics those liver and kidney tests come slightly high but go back down after body adapts to the meds. Also, she sited other lab results involved with liver and kidneys that were normal, so she wasn’t worried but we will keep an eye on these. If all the other lab tests related to liver and kidneys were high, she would be concerned

If you are seeing the ID doc next month, can he share your blood test results with your primary, and avoid one more jab (and lab fee)? My docs (even between 2 networks) are very good about that.
