Question: Liver enzimes, need help


bodave2 - Fri Dec 22, 2006 12:40 pm

I first had a issue when I was 17. I started iching all over and had tingeling in my hands and feet , had high Bilirubin levels and alcaline phosphate so I thought I had mono or hepititus but all was negative. I then got a sonogram and it was normal, the Clorestamine they put me on got rid of the Itching and I had no swelling in my liver and eventualy they just said I was "growing" and had nothing to worrie about. 6 years later and its come back. I had sever Itching and I knew what it was instantly. Same tests High Bilirubin and high alcaline phosphate. Tested for HEP and all clean. Got a sonogram, nothing abnormal. Im on Phonobarbital and clorestamine and the Itching is gone. My last lab showed all enzymes back in normal range but now I have pain in uper right quadrent and back. Could this be a side effect of the clorestamine becouse im very constipated. Also im going to go see a GI when I get some money but in the mean time im so scared. what could this be ? its obviously chronic

any ideas?
