I have had elevated liver enzymes, is there a problem with my liver?

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

Starting 2014, I have had elevated liver enzymes (right after I delivered my baby) which resolved on their own in a few months. Now I again in 2017 (afte delivering my second baby), same thing is happening. All ultrasounds are normal. But now my ANA is positive yet liver enzymes are normal again (except ALP by 1-2 points – this is what has gone up the most in the past years up to 80 points). Hepatologist doesn’t think it’s the liver and is sending me to a rheumatologist. I do have Hashmitos and hypothyroidism since 2012. Please give your advice on that this is.

I have elevated liver enzymes and had an ultrasound recently conducted. Here are the results:
Hepatomegaly with hepatic steatosis and/or hepatocellular disease. Difficult to assess the liver due to limited acoustic penetration from the fatty liver.

Was told that the most likely cause of elevated liver enzymes was Non-alcoholic Fatty liver Disease. What do the results mean?
