Could you please provide some guidance on what's happening to me? What could be causing this, and are there any solutions or treatments I should consider?

I'm going through a really tough time with my kidney stones and I have surgery set for March 9. Theyve got me on 800mg of ibuprofen, but I've been down with what they suspect is the flu for over a week now. My blood work showed AST levels at 103 and ALT at 158 on Feb 14, then a week later they were up to AST 135, ALT 182, with Alkaline phosphate at 126. My potassium levels are also low, and to add to it, I don't have a gallbladder, but an ultrasound didnt show anything unusual. I'm also struggling with obesity and trying to get that under control. It feels like it might just be fatty tissue. Any thoughts on all this?
Given your elevated liver enzymes (AST and ALT), low potassium, and upcoming kidney stone surgery, it's essential to consult your doctor about adjusting your ibuprofen dosage, as it may be exacerbating liver strain, and also discuss potential underlying causes, such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is common in obese individuals, and ensure your potassium levels are monitored and managed to prevent complications.
