Hey, You have gave me some good advice before and remember when I was telling you I will be going to the doc to get everything confirmed. Well, I went today I wanna show you the positive and abnormal results I got and please tell me what you think. The doc said all the results were very high and he scheduled me to the specialist I had seen before. I am seeing him the 18th of this month. The family doc today was trying to scare me or something and actually treated me like a piece of crap still accusing me of shooting up which I hadnt done in over a month because I have been on Suboxone. Well anyway here they are: HCV RNA Detect/Quant, S----------11427 IU/ml
SGPT----147 U/L (normal range is 30-65)
SGOT----50 U/L (normal range is 15-37)
And thats exactly as they was worded on the test results. Thanks a lot and I hope you know what those last two are.

You have hepatitis C (with a very low viral load) and you have elevated liver enzymes.

I would not characterize your enzymes as "very" elevated. By no means does it have any definitive meaning at this point and it is not life threatening or anything.

Yes, follow up with the specialist. Definitely.

Excellent news that you are not using. Keep up the good work!
