What Causes Elevated Liver Enzymes In Blood?
I am a 48 year old woman. I just got back my lab results and my liver enzymes continued to rise over the last 8 months while I was on metformin...therefore I stopped taking it in last 40 days. I have my glucose at 105 wihout the medication, but my liver enzymes were AST 102 and ALT 105 up from 70 s 2 months ago. I never had high liver enzymes prior to December 2013. Triglcerides is 226-which have been high for the last 4 years and not on medication. All other blood work is normal. I feel great...dont know what to think?

HI
Well come to HCM
This may not be due to medicine but this may be due to some viral infection or may be due to some injury to the liver cell and to know this it may need some investigation like ultrasonography and CT study, if there is no any clinical symptoms then this is nothing to worry, have a nice day.
