One triggers other.: Liver function tests are elevated in usual given this diagnosis. With a flare, it is usually the case they are higher, and if the pancreas is involved as well (shown by lipase elevation), this will cause pain & vomiting & may require admission. With alcohol detox and treatment, this may improve over time. It should be stabilized medically and then treated for the alcohol issue.
