How Savannah Watson treated high alkaline phosphatase?

 Note - This article is written by one of our patients about their experiences with high alkaline phosphatase. 

I'm Savannah Watson, and I'll talk about my experience dealing with elevated alkaline phosphatase levels in my own life. I made it a point to get my blood checked annually as part of my dedication to staying healthy. The surprising news came during this year's annual checkup: my alkaline phosphatase levels were measured at 275. I was perplexed by this realisation, worried about it, and resolved to deal with this new health issue.

I was shocked to learn that my alkaline phosphatase levels were high. I tried to keep a healthy lifestyle, but I couldn't figure out why this rapid change had happened. As I thought about the possible causes and the ramifications they could have for my general well-being, a mixture of dread and worry overcame me.

I immediately booked a visit with my primary care physician to better comprehend my condition. My medical background, lifestyle choices, and any recent events that might have led to the increased alkaline phosphatase levels were all thoroughly discussed. To look into possible underlying reasons, such as liver or bone problems, more tests were mandated.

I actively managed my high alkaline phosphatase levels while awaiting further assessments and test results. I thoroughly educated myself on potential causes and lifestyle changes that might help my liver health by conducting my own research and relying on reliable sources. With this understanding, I made deliberate dietary modifications, including foods with a reputation for detoxifying the liver, such leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables, and fruits high in antioxidants.

I prioritised self-care and stress management as essential aspects of my health journey in addition to nutritional changes. Regular physical activity, including practises like yoga and meditation, became ingrained in my daily schedule. I investigated relaxation methods to reduce anxiety and enhance general wellbeing, such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness exercises.

During this trying period, getting help from friends, family, and medical experts was essential. I confided in close friends and family members about my health difficulties, and their support and compassion gave me the emotional help I really needed. I also sought the advice of a nutritionist who specialised in liver health, who worked with me to create a specialised eating schedule meant to nourish my body and promote healthy liver function.

My increased alkaline phosphatase levels were most likely caused by a transient drug reaction, the medical evaluations revealed as the test results started to come in. I realised the significance of carefully monitoring and controlling my liver health, even if I was happy that it wasn't a chronic problem or a symptom of a more serious sickness.

To monitor the development of my alkaline phosphatase levels and make sure that my liver function remained steady, routine follow-up appointments were set up. We were able to decide on my therapy and any necessary lifestyle changes thanks to the continual communication with my medical staff.

I noticed a gradual drop in my alkaline phosphatase levels over time thanks to a mix of dietary adjustments, stress reduction measures, and medical advice. Every follow-up visit resulted in good news, which strengthened my resolve to keep up my efforts and lead a healthy lifestyle.
