What is the best test to check liver function?
My doctor suggested I get my liver checked as I've been feeling unusually tired lately. What is the most common or best test to accurately check how well my liver is functioning?

Hey there! 👋 I think an LFT (Liver Function Test) is usually the standard one. My doc always recommends it for a general check-up. Super easy blood test! 😊

Haan ji, LFT hi sabse common hai. Usse pata chal jaata hai ke liver theek kaam kar raha hai ya na. Doctor se pooch lena ek baar, woh achhe se guide kar denge.

For liver, definitely an LFT. Just like with thyroid, regular testing and doctor's advice are key. Don't self-diagnose, just get the tests done and consult a professional.

Liver function test (LFT), right? Anything that tells me my liver is still working after all those late nights and stress is a good test for me. 😅 Pls tell me it's not too bad, I need my chai.

My doctor always asks for a Liver Function Test when I go for my annual check-up. I just follow what she says and it's worked fine for me so far. Best to ask your own doctor.
