I don't think it is directly connected. I am sure you are having this checked by a physician. There are several reasons for an elevation of liver enzymes some of which may be benign.

I got liver disease several years after devoping UC but before I had ostomy surgery. My doctor said some doctors suspect a correlation but  a link has not been proven.
