Exactly how much it costs to raise a child is the subject of much debate. A Fraser Institute study last month pegged it at $3,000 to $4,000 a year â or $72,000 to raise a child to 18.he calculations work out similarly in Canada, where the total cost of raising a child to 18, including lost income, forgone investment savings and the price of a college education, comes out to around $670,000.
Elevated liver enzymes are a marker of inflammation or damage to liver cells. Inflamed or injured liver cells cause the liver enzymes alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) to leak into the bloodstream. Mild elevations of ALT and AST are commonly discovered in individuals with no symptoms during routine blood work.
I have no appararent reason for elevated liver enzymes but the doctors want to do a liver biopsy. I suddenly thought of all the GI problems I had when I had polio and wondered if there is a connection. I doubt if my liver enzymes were checked before this series which has been taken over the last two years.
