Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Posted December 14, 2006 Hi all, A couple of weeks ago I posted a message asking about causes for liver enzyme elevations. I got a several replies with good information, words of encouragement, etc. Thanks so much for everything. My general practioner had the good sense to ask me what all I was taking, including any new rx's I might have recieved outside of his care. I told him I was taking body building supplements and some other trace elements. He told me to keep doing my HIV meds and stop everything else. On the other hand, one of my HIV doctors told me to stop all HIV meds until I did another blood panel fearing these meds might be causing my enzyme elevations. I went with my GP's advice. To make a long story short, this last Wednesday I had a follow-up blood panel, including hepatitis, and doctor visit. My results came back completely normal. It appears the Chromium Picolonate (I happened to start taking this trace element two weeks prior to my blood work) was most likely the cause of poor results. I had stopped taking the C.P. on the day of the first blood draw and apparently it cleared out of my system in two weeks. Bottom line, be careful what you take. Research your info before buying and consuming. Thank you all who answered my posting and for taking your time to inform me on what you knew and words of encouragement. I was a afraid for a while.
