I had periodic elevated Liver enzymes on IFN too, apparently it is a very common side effect of the drug. When it happened I would either reduce or miss dose until counts recovered. The same thing can happen to your WBC's(Neutropenia) when taking either of the IFN's.
I was so relieved to read your post, (Doc was having none of it, having anything to do with the INF) at least I now know its a possibility, as the other options aren't as welcoming, cheers ETphonehome
