Hi all,
I had blood tests yesterday & my GP called today to tell me that my liver function test was abnormal and arranged an appointment for me to go and discuss this with him on Tuesday. I'm now extremely worried.
My questions:
1. Can anxiety cause abnormal liver function results? I'm very anxious at the moment & have been for the last few weeks (GAD & daily panic attacks)
2. Can taking fluoxetine affect these results? I've been on 20mg for almost 6 weeks.
3. If you've had abnormal liver function results back, what was the cause? What was the next step in finding out?
Might be worth adding that I don't drink, haven't done in several years but I'm a light smoker. I'm 27, appropriate weight and only taking fluoxetine, ompeprozole (sp?) and a beta blocker.
Thanks in advance everyone.
