Aw fɔ ɔndastand di AST ripɔt?

Yu blɔd tɛst ripɔt go sho yu AST lɛvɛl ɛn di nɔmal rɛnj fɔ da lɛvɛl de. dis valyu kin de bitwin 8 εn 33 yunit pan wan lita (8 to 33 U/L). Bɔt dis rɛnj kin difrɛn smɔl frɔm wan lab to ɔda wan.

Wetin na di poshubul tin dɛm we kin mek di AST lɛvɛl go ɔp?

If di AST lɛvɛl ay, i kin bi sayn fɔ di liva sik. Bɔt nɔto ɔltɛm na bikɔs ɔf di liva. AST lɛvɛl kin ay bak fɔ ɔda rizin dɛn. Di tebul we de dɔŋ ya go mek yu ɔndastand dis klia wan.

A fɔ wɔri bɔt mi ɛlevɛt AST lɛvɛl?
