Liver Biopsy In My Near Future

Looks like I have a liver biopsy to schedule in the next couple of weeks.

I was part of an E-Coli outbreak back in the fall of 2008. They noticed my liver enzymes and ANA (Anti-Nuclear Antibody) levels were up. Since fall of 2008 I’ve been having blood drawn on a regular basis. At first it was once a week for several months. Then it slipped to every two weeks, finally once a month.

I had blood drawn last week and the results are in. My Enzymes and other levels have been up and down like a roller-coaster over the past year. I have a large fatty liver and I don’t drink at all so it has them concerned. There is a chance that I simply have a large liver but there is also a chance that I could have liver disease or some sort of immune disorder or disease (no, not AIDS, ive actually been asked that).

Anyway, blood test next week followed by a livery biopsy. I was told to plan a couple of days off of work for the biopsy so ill be scarce when it happens. I’d appreciate any and all prayers from my brothers and sisters in Christ. Hopefully this is nothing and I simply have a large liver!
