Hi, I was wondering if anyone here might know if Sinus infections can cause a slightly higher than normal results for ALT and GGT liver function tests?

Some of the medications prescribed for sinusitis can cause abnormal liver function tests. What medications are you taking?  SignatureSteven D.

Interesting thing is that slightly higher LFT results have shown up twice coincidentally with a bout of Sinusitis, and then dropped back in to the normal range when the Sinus problem resolved. Peter -- -- Peter Jones Join the campaign against ID cards www.no2id.net www.defy-id.org.uk Fax your MP for free: www.faxyourmp.com I have had abnormal liver function tests several times. They seem to go up and down. I haven't noticed if they are correlated with the sinustis or not, but is an interesting thought. Incidently, mine were elevated slightly prior to starting the IV antibiotics and antifungals, but were decreased on my lab results last week after being on all of the medication.

How were you diagnosed with AFS? If it was a culture, then what strain of fungi do you have? SignatureSteven D. Litvintchouk Email: sdlitvin@earthlinkNOSPAM.net Remove the NOSPAM before replying to me. It occured after I had Computer Assisted Sinus Surgery. I was diagnosed by my surgeon. It is in the black fungus family. I do not know the exact fungas name >> I have Allergic Fungal Sinusitis, I am taking Sporonax and Ampho B along >> with Nasonex. > > How were you diagnosed with AFS? > If it was a culture, then what strain of fungi do you have? |
