Liver enzymes

Hi, I had various elements of my blood work slightly up or down, but I didn’t worry unless they told me it would stop the chemo, and it never did. Best wishes and good luck for chemo tomorrow 

I’m so scared

Hi, I know that everything is scary during treatment but if your medical team were worried they would have stopped your chemo.  Try not to worry this evening and just ask the nurse what this means when you get to your chemo tomorrow. Best wishes and I hope you get some sleep 

Hi,  yes I've had this.  After the bloods crept up a few times in a row I was sent for a scan to check my liver - all clear so they can be sure its just the chemo causing the strange levels.  Try not to worry, if they think they need to check it out then they will do so quickly.

Thank you so much x

Thank you so much for your reply x

Hi there , yes I did ! Liver enzymes can go up and down a lot , because everything is processed through the liver , many things can affect the bloods . Alcohol , other meds  like antibiotics even paracetamol. As others have said they will be on it quickly if they need to be 

is this your first chemo ? If not then chemo can be hard on the liver too and they can make adjustments if need be 

big hugs

I have had such a total meltdown today.

Convinced myself it has spread to liver

Thank you by the way xxx

Oh bless you 

if you read my ( lengthy ) profile you’ll see they thought I had issues with my liver and it was terrifying so I know how you feel 

oh also , at the time they thought that , my bloods were all perfect ! So try not to panic xx
