Hi from what I see your LFT's are slightly elevated.
It could be that you had a drink the night before your test.
You could try to get another test when you have not had anything to drink the night before.
For years my doctor thought my slightly elevated LFT's were the result of medication so that is a possibility as well

I hope that all is well and it was just a fluke.

Hi it could be anxiety that is causing these symptoms.  
Calcium/magnesium is supposed to relax us, you could try that or if trouble sleeping melatonin is good. I have used that
