So, I’ve been dealing with elevated AST levels for a couple of years now. It used to hover somewhere between 300 and 800, but it just spiked—it’s sitting north of 5,000 right now! I don't actually feel sick (thank God), and since I’m pretty active with sports, I was wondering if anyone else here has dealt with something similar?
My ENT suggested I undergo surgery for a deviated septum, which apparently makes breathing difficult and is causing some secondary issues—my tonsils are looking pretty rough, too...
The reason I'm asking is that I’ve heard a few different doctors suggest that if you aren't experiencing symptoms, you shouldn't take high AST levels too seriously...
Thanks!
Oh, and for context, I'm 23.
