Liver labs, cevimeline, ultrasound

[irish]

Spring, Just a little info for thought. My middle son who has no diagnosed autoimmune but does have lots back and joint pain and hypothyroidism runs higher liver tests every so often. He has had all the tests needed to rule out the bad stuff including the autoimmune blood work. Everything comes up negative.

However, the doctor is watching him cause my other 2 boys have autoimmune as did my husband. My son thinks that he is getting Sjogrens and has a mild case of it as his teeth are starting to get bad along with all the joint pain, etc. He also has really, really bad reflux and has for about 10 years. Sounds suspicious doesn't it.

The liver tests for him will be positive for a couple of blood checks and then the next test will be positive. Sooo, I hope that this is your situation. Good luck and keep us posted. Irish

Great news - glad the labs were easily fixable.

Thanks, Irish, I will keep an eye on it. Do to a change in the insurance, I was able to look back on years old labs, and found elevated levels when I was high in weight. Watching it in future may show that is it for me, or it is something else. We shall see.

Good luck to you Spring. Irish
