The doctor is probably checking to see if he has Hepatitis A, B or C which would be a common viral cause of elevated liver enzymes. What you should do is continue with the doctor and get the tests that he/she suggests. Once you pinpoint the problem, then you can start to treat it!  

However, here is a link for Pancreatitis information that I found useful when I had an acute 'attack'....  You can find a lot of other info online, too....

Good luck!
