Abnormal LFT's

PepeRo

I had right lymph node excision 3 weeks ago after a strong Epstein-Barr. The pathology came almost clean. Parvovirus b19 was positive. I was very sick, had 5 surgeries 6 years ago and now my liver enzymes AST and ALT are increasing rapidly.(2 weeks)
I've been tested for many things and all negative. Galliun scan showed nothing at all.
I have a mitral valve licking but not very much. What can I do?
I'll have an endoscopy on tuesday and I don't even know if it's very necessary. I do experience abdominal inflammation after eating and some times very painful spasms. The Dr. I'm seeing is supposedly one of the best ones but I have no idea and I'm afraid.
My bilirubin is 1.3
AST 79
ALT 306
I'm an International patient waiting in the Houstonian Medical Center area. Please give me some advice

i am not sure if the abnormal liver tests are associated with the EBV, although it is possible. are you having an ERCP? In houston, i would recommend dr gary davis or Khozema Hussain as hepatologists to see.
