the good news and the not so good news

Spoke to doc about my blood tests. He said 'I have some good news and some not so good news'. Don't you just love it when they say that?
Anyway, the good news is that my amylase levels are normal suggesting perhaps that the pancreas is not upset. The not so good is that my liver function is considerably abnormal..
Great. Probably down to gallstones escaping from the gall bladder and straying around the system into places that they are not welcome. This perhaps explained the severe pain on Saturday- probably not anything I ate after all.
So what now? Will tell you tomorrow when I have seen the consultant in the morning.Keep your fingers crossed for some positive progress.

How come the bad news is never "It looks like you're getting younger for some reason"?
