Revisiting: Liver enzymes drifting down and what that usually means posts 61–62

This is a continuation of a long topic, addressed by post number rather than by page. Start at post 1.

Post #60 is the version of this I will quote in future. One addition.

Glycaemic markers integrate over different periods. A point glucose and a longer-term marker disagreeing is not a contradiction; it is two different questions.

Noting that I have skin in this question and have tried to discount for it.

Where I part company with post #58, and it is a narrow parting.

Liver enzymes: elevation does not specify cause. ALT and AST can rise from many things. Bilirubin helps narrow down the cause. Multiple markers together are more informative than one alone.

That holds under the stated conditions and I have stated them.
