Many: Liver enzymes are from the inside of the cells in the liver, and theur presence in excess indicates too many liver cells are dying, dimping their contents into the blood. Several causes: too much tylenol, (acetaminophen) alcohol, ibuprofen, and many prescription drugs. Gall stones lodged in the tract from the liver to the intestine, a tumor in that tract or the liver itself, an infection like hepatitis or mono.

Many: There are hundreds of cause. First, if you were drinking alcohol before your lab this could be an issue. Or if you tend to drink regularly or are an alcoholic. Too much tylenol (acetaminophen) can cause is as well. Fatty liver deposition is another common cause especially in those who are over weight. Hepatitis a, b, c as well. Any malignancies that might be primary or might have spread to the liver....
