A member asked:
Should i be worried if only one of my liver enzyme tests came back elevated? they never told me which one just to quit drinking and retest in a month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Liver: Yes. All elevated liver enzymes can mean danger. There is no medication to improve the liver. It has to heal on it's own. Thus when there is liver inflammation one must cut out the toxic things that are possible reasons for the liver trouble. It is not to be ignored.
