Brief Answer:
Requires evaluation.
Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.
The rise in Liver enzymes can be due to following common reasons:
1. Alcoholic or Non Alcoholic Fatty liver disease.
2. Drugs.
3. Viral Hepatitis.
Crestor can also cause a rise in Liver enzymes but before we declare it as culprit we should be sure that there are no other reasons as mentioned above.
So I would recommend you following tests:
1. Ultrasound Abdomen to see for Fatty liver
2. HbsAg for Hepatitis B
3. Anti HCV antibody for Hepatitis C.
So get these tests done and write back to me with reports.
I hope it helps you.
If you have any further query, please ask me.
