Confused Hello I'm a worried mother seeking answers.

I'm told my son may have Muscle dystrophy but the Doctors wont see him untill 2 months. The doctor ran blood tests and told me they were very high but I couln't believe it when I seen them.
Alkaline Phosphatase 120 U/L, normal is 47-114 U/L
ALT 905 U/L, normal is 14-66 U/L
AST 698 U/L, normal is 16-48 U/L
CK total 18820 U/L normal is 30-345 U/L.
Has anyone else had such high results? Can it be dangerous? I just need some kind of answers or information. If anyone can relate or has some kind of answer please respond beause I'm going crazy not knowing whats going on. My son is only 6 years old and I need to know how to help him.

Hi and welcome to NeuroTalk! I'm so sorry to hear of your little boy's health concerns - I have two boys and I know how scary it can be to not know what's going on when it comes to their health. I've posted the link to our Children's Forum - possibly someone there might be able to offer some advice. Please join in anywhere you feel comfortable, though. Glad you found us.

Hello vb and welcome to NeuroTalk. Sorry you have to wait so long to see the Dr's. Is there a way they can get you in sooner or for a cancellation. Waiting is so hard.

Can't help w/your questions, but please do look around, check out the forums and hopefully someone will be able to help w/your questions. Glad you found us.
