Default Immigration Medical New Zealand

I am applying for work to residence and have a had the medical test. My results for Gamma GT are 70 when it should be between 0-60 and my ALT score was 46 when it should be 45. Due to this my form states faulty liver. I'm 31 and have a Fairly healthy lifestyle, drinking socially on weekends. I have been living in NZ for 8 months of a working holiday visa and have a had a full time job for 5 months.

My results are being evaluated by the medical board as we speak. Has anyone had the same problem or do you know if my results are really that bad.

I think everyone has a broke liver according to NZ immigration. I wouldn't worry to much about it. You may have to have another test (lots of water for a week before!) or some additional tests done. I wonder hows much nz govt. makes from extra medical testS??

Nice to know I'm not the only one with a dodgy liver. I'm sure someone is making a fortune out of the extra tests.
