### input:
I am a 63 yo female on statins and BP meds. I am 5 1 135 lbs and eat very healthy. I exercise 2 times a week with cardio and weight lifting. I got my test results back to check liver enzymes and my ALT is high. The range should be 6-29 and mine is 35. I looked back on my previous tests when I was under another doctor s care BEFORE I was taking cholesterol medication and it was 28. The range they showed though was from 0-40 as acceptable, not 6-29. This most recent test was done because I was diagnosed with a benign hemangioma on my liver which was found incidentally looking for something else, a benign fatty mass on my kidney. I am also wondering if my high ALT is the reason my glucose is so high. It is 119. Before when I was tested under my other doctor when my ALT was low my glucose was low too. It was 92 so I feel there could be a connection between the 2 readings. So while my cholesterol is low, 174, due to the statins, my ALT and glucose are high as well. My current cholesterol reading after going through a life style change WITHOUT statins is 264. Do you think it s the statins that are causing my high ALT readings? Or is it the benign hemangioma on my liver? I am also concerned my medications are affecting my glucose negatively. I ate less healthy when my glucose was low. Now that I take care of myself, it s higher. The only difference I can see is statins.

### output:

Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your ALT level is normal. No need to worry about your ALT level. There is minor lab to lab variation and instrument and kit wise variation in result. So no need to worry about ALT. Statin is not responsible for that. Liver hematoma is accidental finding, and it is also not responsible. Statin does not increase the blood glucose level. Take low fat diet with high amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Continue your statins according to advise. Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
