Hi I posted in another group and was directed here …
Hi everyone, my husband has incurable lung cancer stage 4 adenocarcinoma which has spread to the lymph nodes, pericardial fluid, and base of skull as far as we know - he had a pericardial window surgery in June and has been having chemo and immunotherapy since July he’s now just had his fourth treatment after it has been deferred once for low neutrophils and last time for high ALT (291) reading on liver function tests, he had a ct-scan on Sunday everywhere from his neck to his pelvis.
he is now getting pain in his arms and hands and hip and feet, he’s putting weight on and eating well due to the steroids but doesn’t seem well at all sleeping more, has visual disturbances he also gets confused easily, he’s also saying he feels like he’s about to pass out or fit (he has syncope episodes) and that everything is slower than normal
Does anyone know anything about why his ALT readings would be so high and what this could mean, is this something I need to be concerned about - thank you for reading and for anyone who replies.
