Guest guest Posted September 3, 2002 Report Share Posted September 3, 2002 Hi Everyone, My internists office just phoned to tell me that my bilirubin level is higher than it was three weeks ago.. now over 2.1.. I am getting copies later this afternoon.. so can post the actual results then.. and my alkaline phosphatase is also more elevated.. She is very concerned and wants an immediate ultrasound of my abdomen and pelvis. I am scheduled to have this test tomorrow morning.. as I have to be npo for the test .. which is at 10:30 am.. that should really mess up my taking protein, vites, etc.. and I have to be at work I think at 1 pm.. I am having some problems with my pt an ptt times..bleeding times.. and the bariatric surgeon, internist and GI doctor all agree that I am somewhat deficient in vitamin k.. which affects a host of things.. like how you absorb calcium, your heart, prevention of blood clots, stroke, etc.. Thank you guys for listening.. I know some of you are inclined to pray and I appreciate your prayers, good thoughts,etc. Hugs, from GA open RNY 12/12/00 Revision 04/18/01 Revision 02/07/02 St wt.... 392 Cw.......187 Wt loss..-205 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
