Last week had a bad stomach bug and liver enzymes were elevated. this week redid blood and all normal again. what caused the elevation?

Liver inflamed: Most likely the stomach bug (gastroenteritis) caused associated liver inflammation. Cause may have been virus, bacteria, parasite or even ingested toxin. Liver inflammation can resolve spontaneously thanks to immune system and ability to eliminate toxins.
