I have a question regarding isolated GGT elevation in a blood test. My GGT was at 128, while the upper limit for normal in this test was 88. All other liver results came back normal. I am 34 years old, 5'6" and 180 lbs, active, with a fairly good diet, and I drink alcohol but stopped two weeks prior to the test. I have high cholesterol since I was young, which runs in my family. What could be the cause of the elevated GGT, and should I be concerned?
