Can a lipase level go from critically high (194 with a range of 7-60) to well within normal range in 24 hours (er value today was 271 with a range 93-393)? Normal ct without contrast as well. Going to gp tomorrow and getting lab repeated, but was curious.

Cholecystitis, an infection of the gallbladder, may cause lipase levels to rise. Lipase levels may also be elevated in people who have an intestinal blockage. You may need to discuss it further over a call for a better and effective medical consultation. Thanks.
