Hi thanks for asking question.
Because of dengue infection you had elevated liver enzymes.
Now according to history you are fully recovered so enzymes will be normal now.
No need for doing liver enzymes profile if clinically no symptoms are present just now.
If you developed abdominal pain and jaundice then liver enzyme profile should be done ...
As a routine check up and no problem of money then liver enzymes can done but at just now it is not needed.
I hope your concern is solved.
Take care.
