NAFLD and liver enzymes

I have a few autoimmune issues and my liver enzymes had been hovering at ALP 119, AST 79 and ALT 132. Albumin and bilarubin normal to low. My doctor ordered ultrasound and said I had mild fatty liver. Four weeks later my enzymes are ALP 145, AST 257, ALT 299. Is this normal for NAFLD? Do your enzymes just keep climbing or should I advocate for my doctor to run other tests. Thanks for your help!

    What does NAFLD stand for? I have worked out fatty liver disease, but what about the NA?

    I am watching what I eat and have lost 20 lbs. With 20 more to go. I just didn't know if your liver enzymes continue to increase with fatty liver or not. I would have thought they stayed the same or decreased as you lost weight. Thanks
