After waking up today I noticed that my liver hurts. The pain is in the right side of the abdomen ( right flank), right under the rib. It is a light pain and it feels on a bigger surface (like I got punched in the liver or something) ..it's not a sharp , knife like pain. It tends to feel when I walk or when I press that area.
Blood tests taken this month show the next results : AST 39 U/L (10-37) , ALT 130 U/L (10-41) , Alkaline phospathase 70 U/L (40-129), LDH 200 U/L (135-225), GLU 80 mg/dl (70-115), Ureea 32 mg/dl (10-50), TP 8,38 g/dl (6,6 - 8,7) , Albumins 62,5 % (52-68), Chol 209 mg/dl (120-200), blood clothing 239 mg/dl (180-350 ). I DON"T have any jaundice and my appetite is normal. I've been a bit tired the last 2-3 days but it's true nontheless that I got very little sleep. I also checked my temperature today and it was 36,7 degrees. My stools are daily and normal. On monday i'll go for a liver screening.
Am I sick ? Is it possible to have a liver problem ?

And I forgot ..right after waking up today and going to the bathroom, I felt like throwing up and had that liquid coming back to my mouth feeling. I didn't throw up ...it was a few minutes later that I noticed the pain in the liver area. Could it be because of something I ate and affected the liver or what? I mean it's pretty strange cuz I was just fine yesterday night when I went to bed. I know that my ALT level is high but expect for that I have nothing of concern pointing towards my liver. Besides, the doctor said that the ALT level could be because of a muscle inflammation I had for about 1 month.

These are classic symptoms of a gall bladder attack, and are not related to liver functions. You should consider getting to a doctor today.
