Does Ciprofloxacin Cause Liver Damage And Fatigue?

I took ciprofloxacin last fall and suffered extreme fatigue while taking it. I learned after taking the entire dosage that I probably should have stopped taking it because of my reaction. I just recently had a blood test and my last and alt were very high. Could I have damaged my liver by taking ciprofloxacin? Fatigue is a sign of liver problems when taking ciprofloxacin.
