oh that's so weird, upper right quadrant pain. I have indeed had a funny feeling there kinda like an uncomfortable pins and needles for about a month now.
Where is the upper right quadrant?!!
I had the ALT test with Holly at about 36weeks because they asked me if I had any pain above my belly and I said that sometimes I feel something there but it could be a foot in my ribs (I had no itching and none of the other symptoms) but they tested me just to be sure since I was having all my sugar tests that day anyway at the lab. So it deffo has some link to a pain somewhere, but I don't know where the upper right quadrant is!!
Do you think all the heartburn you're having could be liver related, bile overproduction and suchlike? Though it doesn't state heartburn as a symptom!
Do you only have 2 scans in the UK? We get 3 here- 12, 24 and 33 weeks
Then with Holly I had some extra ones to the normal coz they said she was miniature, and I guess I'll get extra ones with Henry because his feet are oversized or something
Normal is between 0 and 40 from what I read on the web for the ALT in a pregnant woman
yeah only two unless specific reason like your big feet, placenta previa etc.
It would be nice for once to only have the 3 standard ones- much as I always liked seeing Holly more it was always a bit stressy since it was to see if her legs had grown more!!
I've just been informing myself about OC, I hope the second round of tests show it isn't that, it's quite nasty
Ummm Emandi it's illegal to look that good a month or so after birth
News Flash
All was fine at the diabetes docs and I'M EVEN ALLOWED TO TRY SOME EXTRA BREAD AT BREAKFAST because my brekkie readings are low My next (and last ) appointment is in one month By which time chocolate biscuits will be looming on the horizon!
Addie OC is obstetric cholestasis, the liver disorder I'm being investigated for
Where are you staying Kit?
Back to the mat unit tomorrow for repeat bloods. ALT (or is it ATL) is raised after all. So it may still be that OC. Friday night hooked to a monitor yippee.
They are taking bloods tomorrow addie
