Adamie,
St James is right (as usual). If you are concerned about your liver, you need to ask your doctor to run liver function tests (LFTs) for you. It's just a simple blood test. Also, you should probably tested for hepatitis B & C. If you haven't already been vaccinated for hepatitis B, you need to be. Everyone should be vaccinated for hepatitis B.

I had regular blood tests before which turned out kind of okay. But I guess those cannot show if one's liver is not functioning properly.
