Answer

Hello, liver function tests can be affected by a number of problems including the liver itself (infection, inflammation) or gall bladder, obesity also with some medication or alcohol.

the important thing is the pattern of the results.Do you have the exact report (including the reference ranges)?
Also can you tell me if you take any medication or alcohol?
