Are Elevated Liver Enzymes And Increased Calcium Levels The Same?

Hi recently I had blood work that showed slightly elevated liver enzymes. My Dr wants to retest in 3 months. This week I went to my Hematologist and received a call the next day that my calcium levels have also increased. Are the two connected? I have to go back in 2 weeks so I am freaking out waiting.

Well, I don't think there is any problem in retesting your liver enzimes before the three month time. As for the calcium level I don't think there's a relation between the two. Is more a coincidence. Liver enzimes should be monitored for the six months to come. The frequence could be i.e once a month.
