Hi thanks for asking question.

Noted you have high blood pressure with elevated liver enzyme and taking telmisartan for blood pressure.
Your liver enzyme could be elevated by fatty liver.USG done for it...with serum cholesterol estimation...
Drug induce liver enzyme can be elevated...
If need complete liver profile test can be done with viral marker....

Meanwhile rest liver with low fatty diet.
Through diet control and regular exercise control blood pressure and lipid level.

If still enzyme elevated muscular disorder and cardiac history needed.
Take care.
