Hi folks!

My Elastase levels are increased
591 normal 0 -140.
Does anybody has experience with this blood test? Where does it comes from and how does it goes down? My doctor measured it, and I dont know what he wanna do with it? We didnt have enough time to talk about it, but it doesnt see that he has an answer..Does it causes stiffness of the tissue? Treatable with antibiotics? Comes from the gut?
Thanks for all answers
