Tests
Hi Margie,
Yes, the liver tests AST and ALT can increase if you have iron overload.
The test that tells you more about iron overload is the ferritin level - if it is less than 1000 you don't have iron overload.
How many units of packed red blood cells have you received?
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
70 yo, transfusion dependent since dx May 2006 (have now received 94 units of blood), Neupogen 2 injections/week for low white blood cells, last platelet count 43.
