Hi a,

I didn't have chemo so can't comment on liver enzymes and chemo, but I have

had elevated liver enzymes from other medications - Lipitor for one. They

stopped the Lipitor. I think that anything like chemo has to process through

the liver and can cause elevated enzymes. Where's Anne - she should have the

answer here. Or Ellen?

Keep us posted - sending love and light.

Hi a,

I too had elevated liver enzymes during chemo, specifically the

Taxol. After initially working myself into a frenzy about possible

mets, I researched side effects on the drug company's website and

approx. 20% will have elevated liver enzymes as a side effect. My

oncologist confirmed this at my next visit and told me that the

levels should go back to normal after chemo.

After hearing from other women as well, I learned that elevated

enzymes are not that uncommon.

Take care,

Janet B.

Hi a,

I second this. It also happened to me. After I was done with chemo, they went

back to normal.

Hugs

Hi

I am currently on taxol and have elevated liver enzymes, but I also have a

change in my

markers, they went from 32 to 51. Is this also a side effect of the taxol? I was

asking the

nurse but she was unsure and I'm afraid that something else is going on. I know

we aren't

suppose to put too much weight into the marker test, but it still is distrubing

and such a

helpless feeling. As always thank you for all the great information and support.
