[|Human|] MY LIVER ENZYMES ARE HIGH . I HAVE BEEN TESTED FOR HEPATITIS A, B & C - ALL NEGATIVE. ULTRASOUND IS NORMAL. I DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL. I DO NOT USE INTRAVENOUS DRUGS. HOWEVER, I GAINED 20 LBS WHEN I QUIT SMOKING 11 MOS AGO. MY GI IS DOING AN ENDOSCOPY TOMORROW MORNING - HE SAYS HE WANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT I DO NOT HAVE VERICOSE VEINS IN MY ESOPHAGUS. IS THAT THE NORMAL NEXT STEP TO FINDING OUT WHY MY ENZYMES ARE HIGH?
[|AI|]  HI, When there are no signs of portal hypertension like splenomegaly on ultrasound, but i don't know exactly how many enzymes are elevated. But most likely you should not have esophageal varices. But you need to be evaluated for other condition like Wilson disease and other autoimmune condition if liver enzymes are significantly elevated. If they are mildly elevated just avoid oily and fatty food, do regular exercise that will help you in reversing the enzymes. Hope this information helps outrank you
