When I first started Tec, 8 weeks ago; my Neuro didn't require me to have a CBC done prior. So when I visited my PCP, I asked if she would write a script for me to have one. I had already been on Tec for approx. 3 weeks.
I received my results and my AST level is at 35 U/L and my ALT level is at 45 U/L. My PCP nurse called me and said the Dr. that my liver enzyme is slightly elevated and wants me to get my blood tested every 3-6 months.
So for the long post, but here is my question. Does anyone know if these levels are something I should be concerned with and is there anyway of knowing if Tec is in fact causing the elevation. I have never been told before that my levels were elevated and prior to Tec, I was on Copaxone, Tysabri, and Rebif for just 1 month.
If anyone can give me some insight, I would really appreciate it. Oh and by the way, I've currently been on Tec for 9 weeks now.
