Liver enzymes and allergies
by Taterehab, Jun 04, 2008 07:42PM
I have been told I have dry eyes and eye allergies. Symptons are dryness, puffyness and some redness. Recently I have an episode of high liver enzymes, then two runs of normal levels and now two week later, they are high again. Could these two issues be related?

A laboratory report of elevated liver enzymes is common and doesn't indicate a specific disease. However, elevated liver enzymes may be due to liver disease even if you have no symptoms. To determine the underlying cause of elevated liver enzymes, your doctor may recommend further testing.
Common causes are:
Medication, such as certain nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
Drinking alcohol
Obesity
Diabetes
Elevated triglycerides
Infection, such as viral hepatitis.
Treatment depends on the cause.If you are on any herbal medicines or supplements please inform your doctor.
Perhaps some ingredient is trigerring of that allergy too.
Other-wise the two are unrelated.
