Liver Enzymes Found Elavated During Blood Test. Scheduled Ultrasound. Should I Be Concerned?
At my routine physical I had blood work done and I was asked to come back a second time because my liver enzymes were slightly elevated. They came back elevated again so my doctor scheduled an ultrasound. I didn't hear anything for about two weeks so I figured everything looked normal. I recently got a phone call from the receptionist that my doctor wanted me to come back a third time for more blood work. Should I be concerned?

hi,
yes, you should be concerned, because of many deseases increase liver enzymes, i.e. may be any bacterial, viral, and helminthic infestations, and may be gall bladder manifestations.
