Hello ,
welcome to health care magic,
Dear patient, you had slightly derranged liver function function tests earlier which have now improved, so you need not to worry much. Such mild derrangements can be seen in mild hepatitis, early stages of alcoholic liver injury , fatty liver diseae, cirrhosis of liver, metabolic liver diseases like wilson's disease etc..Since your liver functions have improved ,it is a very good sign. Some more tests that you can get done to make it sure that every thing is fine include USG whole abdomen espicially hepatobilliary system, HBs Ag TEST, HCV serology and ECG Your epigastric heavyness can also be due to acid peptic disease, so you consult a gastroenterologist who will reveiw your reports and will advise you accordingly
Hope every thing is going to be fine with you and wish you good luck and speedy recovry
thanks

Welcome to HCM.
I am amazed that the doctors treating you did not discuss the possible diagnosis. Not having your full history makes it difficult for me to tell with certainty what the diagnosis is. The most common reasons for raised liver enzyme's is alcohol abuse, Infections, And certain medications. Please make sure that these have been excluded. Avoid smoking and drinking, Follow a healthy diet, And drink two liters of clean water daily. Taking phospholipids and a tonic might be helpful. I trust this information helps you
