Smooth muscle positive 1:200 GGT 259
Female 31 80kg
Vitamin D deficiency of 20 led to liver panel which shown elevated alt of 79.
3 months on vitamin d then liver function advanced panel taken
Results are smooth muscle antibody positive 1:200
Also had a positive 1:80 in 2018 no known cause found at that time.
GGT 259
Enzymes returned back to normal on this test. On previous tests they go up and down.
Have had a mild liver ache which i put down to gallbladder removal 5 years ago. When taking paracetamol or naproxen for other health conditions I get liver pain. Similar to milder version of a gallbladder attack.
Reduced pain relief to one dose a day and have done this for two years.
Had a referal to hepatology. Still waiting.
History of autoimmune type issues recurrent infections rashes etc. Immunology could not find a cause back in 2020.
Could someone please shed some light on to what may be happening and whats to come. I know autoimmune hepatitis is in question with a high smooth muscle like this.
Is it possibly lupus or a wider systemic auto immune issue or likely to be auto hepatitis due to smooth muscle positive and ANA negative.
Thanks
