How is the liver affected by mito? Anyone have liver problems?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I have my appt with the GI doc tomorrow. I am trying to figure out

about my abnormal liver function tests. They elevated one day while

I was in the hospital and slowly came back almost to the levels they

were before but not quite. I am still wondering if it was simply due

to the Percocet or if there is something more going on.

I did have trouble with elevated liver tests once before. I thought

I remembered I had a flu and was throwing and the LFTs came back

abnormal, but in reviewing my records, I see that I had no fever or

other viral symptoms at the time. Just throwing to the point of

dehydration and elevated LFTs. I was on a medication at that time

and the tests remained elevated for a couple of months until finally

I stopped taking the medication and they went to normal.

Your liver does so much in your body, I wonder how mito effects it.

I have heard that you can be very sick with liver problems with

fairly low LFT readings. Also, with so many mito patients being

sensitive to meds, foods, supplements, and it is the job of the liver

to clear things from the body, it just seems to me there is a

connection.

Anyone have any trouble attributed to the liver?
