Liver enzymes go up with any inflammation in the body. If they are trending down over the next 4-6 weeks, that is a good sign they will likely normalize. You should avoid alcohol while they are still elevated. Continue to see your doctor so they can be repeated in a few weeks. If they are not trending down, see a liver specialist. Good luck!
