Hello dear Lybrate user, Warm welcome to Lybrate. I have evaluated your query thoroughly. There is no concern of current report with previous appendix surgery. This is mostly due to some hemodilution disturbances during reporting. Can take repeat sample in another lab with empty stomach for confirmation. Hope this clears your query. Wishing you fine recovery. Welcome for any further assistance.
