Can Mold Exposure Cause Elevated Liver Enzymes?

I currently work in my basement several hours a day and it has repeat flooding issues. I recently found a ton of mold and realized that I have had a persistent cough for several months now. Also a month ago I had slightly elevated liver enzymes on routine blood work. I am otherwise very healthy. Organic diet, exercise, limited alcohol use and non smoker. Could my elevated liver enzymes be related to mold exposure?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
In my opinion, mold exposure is the cause for your cough, so take nebulisations to relieve. Consult a doctor personally. LFTs mildly deranged is suggestive of many conditions. Even your occasional alcohol consumption could be one.
