The taxanes can take a toll on the liver enzymes for some people.
Secondly, make sure you ASK for and GET copies of all your bloodwork/results.
I do so that I have them in a file and can compare quarter to quarter my liver enzymes and CA 27/29 as well as my lymphs and monocytes. I have a running chart so I can "see" the chaotic nature of my results and the steadiness of other results.
You should be able to get the information you want on yourself. Just be very direct with your onc on what you want and expect. If you explain your needs clearly, then you should get what you want and if you don't, then you can really throw a fit.
Don't worry about the enzymes now because the chemo and WBC boosters can play havoc with your liver.
Just finish up (you are over halfway there), then stabilize and you will probably see everything else stabilize too.
I am always thinking of you and I think many of us are. Remember we are with you even in the middle of the night.
Kindest regards
Becky
