I've been following the other liver disease/bloodwork threads. Interesting to see that test can be skewed by so many things, including method of blood draw. Tiki's BAT pre=2.1 and post=47.5, sometimes makes me wonder if it is leaning toward mild MVD rather than shunt, or some totally different cause. The ALT at 245, and xray showing slightly smallish liver is a huge concern to me. Just hope a definite diagnosis is made soon.
That is really hard to believe.
How sad.
Not one internal medicine specialist in all of Hawaii?
Does anyone even do LS surgery there or do you have to come to the continental US?
