Well, without wanting to scare you I'd say that theoretically edemas in both legs are seen between other diseases in chronic advanced liver diseases too. I can't guess what your "liver high count" is or was transaminases I suppose?!
Protrombine time and INR is to be done too like the Protein Electrophoresis.
After this values received we can find if the liver is the culprit for your leg edemas or not .
I find this answer helpful
