I had mildly elevated liver enzymes on two blood tests but ultrasound was normal. what could be causing this?

Many possibilities.: there are entire text books written on the causes of abnormal liver tests. It would be impossible to list all of them here. It is important if you have persistently abnormal liver tests to have an evaluation performed to determine the cause. Initially, your primary care doctor can start the process, but if no obvious answer is present, you should see a gastroenterologist. Good luck.
