I have rheum arthritis , fibromyalgia . I ve had a gallbladder test but do not have results yet. Liver enzymes are elevated on and off.

Dear sir
Usually liver enzymes gets elevated due to hyperactivity of liver rather than having structural or anatomical problems
Most of the timesmdrugs, alcohol and high fatty foods will cause elevation of liver enzymes. Hepatits in such cases will cause elevation of liver enzymes also causing pain in the ribs with pleural irritation.
What best you can do is to take a course of hepatic detoxifiers .
Thanks
