Elevated liver enzymes....again

The research coordinator for the study called me tonight saying that Hunter's blood work from yesterday came back showing elevated liver enzymes. This happened not too long ago when Hunter was hospitalized for dehydration too.

At that time, the pediatrician said that they could be elevated just because he was dehydrated, but wanted us to redo the blood work when he was healthy to be sure. We checked it again a few weeks later and supposedly it was fine.

Both times that they've been elevated have been when he's dehydrated, so I'm not overly worried at this point, although it makes me a little concerned whenever I hear something like this. He will go back in next Tuesday for another re-check.
