question: I recently had a liver resection for a giant hemangioma. I also have a history (long ago) of thyroid cancer with a thyroidectomy and resultant hypoparathyroidism/hypocalcemia. I am 4 wks out from my liver resection & my AST & ALT are both greater than 4 times the upper limits of normal. I m wondering if there could be a connection between the thyroid/parathyroid issue & the elevated LFTs?
