If I have hepatitis C, wouldn’t my ALT levels automatically high and mess my labs up?

sammieee1008Mar 21, 2022
I’m currently on methadone & have hepatitis C. While it doesn’t seem the methadone is an issue, i was originally approved by my surgeon and then brought it back up to reassure a getting closer to my surgery date.

Is that typically an issue if they know why the levels are high???
