Liver Enzymes

I had involuntary movements in my muscles in the last 2 months in addition to repeat cramps.
the blood test showed that levels of calcium, magnisium, sodium, and putasium are normal but liver enzymes are elevated - VERY HIGH - i have done ultrasound check and it showed that i have a fatty liver.

The doctor's diagnosis was that i have shortage in Vitamin D caused by high liver enzymes which leads to these involuntary movements in my muscles.

The question is .. do high liver enzymes affect muscles? and does it really affect levels of vitamin D ?

Please advise

I also forgot to add that overweight itself causes muscle aches cos of the weight of the body on the legs.Try to shed some weight if you can,

Hi,I think we would start by reducing how much you smoke.I havent suffered one before but my daughter who is 3yrs has been reported to have high liver enzymes and it comes with joint aches.So i probably think they are related.she is seeing a gastroenterologist now,may be u seek the advice of one.Reducing the amount you smoke would go a long way.Goodluck in ur decision and i hope u get better soon.
