More tests: based on info provided, the abnormal liver test was probably the alkaline phosphatase, which is most commonly elevated with liver disease, however it can be elevated due to bone, kidney or intestinal problems. There is a lab test to differentiate this. If bone is source, then more imaging testing may be needed to look at your bones.
