How To Bring Down Elevated Liver Enzymes Into Normal Numbers?
i have elevated liver enzymes since the beginning of Sept. numbers were in the thousands along with a 12 for bilirubin which has since come down. Enzymes are now at 833. I am not feeling as sick as I did but am very concerned about what I can do other than wait for the numbers to come back to normal
