Are Elevated Liver Enzymes Along With Low WBC And Blood Platelet Count Symptoms Of Liver Cirrhosis?
I got my blood test results back showing elevated liver enzymes, low white blood cell count and low platelets. I have a gallbladder that needs to be removed but other then that have a clean medication hx. I do have a history of heavy drinking that I have slowed down on a lot. Could this be a sign of cirrhosis? Or could something like my gallbladder cause those test results.

Hello,
Based on the mentioned history, cirrhosis has to be ruled out. For that, you need to investigate with ultrasonography of abdomen for primary work up. If USG shows nodules over the liver than cirrhosis could be possible.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
