There are false positive hep A tests but your elevated liver enzymes need explanation. If you only had one dose of the vaccine you can still get hep A infection. A hepatologist, gastroenterologist or specialist in infectious disease would be best to evaluate & advise you. Appropriate testing will then be ordered.This is important as an hepatitis A infection is reportable to the public health dept
