No one blood testing is 100% accurate.
When they see the blood tests results out of normal
range...they may recheck the levels again in 2 to 3 months
to see if they go back into normal range.
Many things can effect the results of these tests.
If your liver enzymes and liver function tests were out
of normal range...with the Alk Phos...it could signify a
biliary or liver problem. However, Alk Phos (ALP) is
also higher in pregnant women, those who have
a bone problem, or are young and their bones are
still growing. Alk Phos is also found in other areas
of the body.
If this was the only test that was shown to be high...
then I would ask the doctor to recheck it in a few months.
The Calcium is in normal range from what you mentioned
and is not a cause for concern.
Hope this info is of some help. Best wishes

No, I think you electrolytes may be high too - it's not a bad thing - probably due to diet. Exercise a little more, would be my guess, to use body salts and fluids. There is no problem unless it is with bilirubin, or rarely a jaundiced finding.
