Can elevated liver count level cause muscle pain?
Patient: Hello, I recently went to the doctor to have a physical and blood work was done. I was called back about a week later and was told my liver count level was too high, and also my thyroid count was low. She says that she wants to do a hepatitis panel test and an ultrasound of the liver. When researching online I found that muscle pain could possibly cause an elevated liver count and the day before my physical the muscle on the right side of my lower back was hurting a lot. 3 days before I also did some heavy drinking. Should I be worried? Could I possibly have elevated levels from taking mucinex and day quil? Doctor: hi, dr. boskey gandhi is here, in liver function test, multiple tests are available. which parameter of liver is affected & how much, its important to know for us,(as u had not mention) for decisions of doing liver penal.but I think that u should go for sonography of abdomen, to rule out any gross pathology. so best luck.
