Hello Anon

Thank you for writing!

We cannot tell you what this means exactly for your mother - the doctor should have explained this. But in general, a low liver enzyme is not considered significant if the patient is otherwise healthy. If not, the doctor needs to explain any significance of low enzymes.
Best,
Susan
