Will my ALT levels make or break my breast augmentation surgery?

December 27, 2019
Asked By:ShinyShay in Boca Raton, Florida

I have a BA scheduled in two weeks and my surgeon requested that I be tested two times for my ALT levels due to the first test coming back high. The first time they came at 43 and the next they lowered to 41. Everything else came back just fine and perfectly normal including the other blood work, xrays, and urine analysis. My AST levels are not high, just my ALT. Will this cause my surgeon to not proceed?
