Modern science, right?
My alkaline phosphatase numbers have been elevated. in the last blood tests I've taken (over a six-month period). Usually, this means bone loss, but that has been ruled out (which is great). Today, I went for an abdominal ultrasound, mainly to check my liver, because liver function problems could also be indicated.
My exam was at 2:30pm.
My results were in within two hours, and available online for me before 5pm(!). Modern science.
My liver is enlarged with indications of 'early fatty liver.' This is a symptomless and not particularly dangerous problem.
It is probably due to a combination of diabetes and my relatively recent (five years) affection for whiskey. I am going to have to cut back.
No problem. I will cut back my liquor intake to one shot a week.
I am grateful for such a simple challenge.

Oh, boy, I didn't see that coming. That's just two slices of the healthiest bread I know of, still off-plan, but gee - that's a negative surprise!
