I have elevated liver enzymes - alt, ast, alk. phos. and ggt. they were revealed after an application for life insurance, which was declined. The have gone down a bit, but are still above normal. That said, we have done ultrasound, ct with contract, and now my blood is at Mayo for possible PBC. However, I also had a root canal today and the endodontist told me it was likely the cause of some jaw pain that I have had for a few months. He said it was pretty bad, although an abscess wasn't noted. Could the tooth problem be the cause of elevated values?
