Elevated liver enzymes on taxol

Hi all,
I have had 6 clues of taxol, and for the last few weeks my liver enzymes have been rising.
When I went in for my cycle this week my levels were very high so no taxol was given. My bilirubin also elevated.
The nurses mentioned that I might need liver ultrasound and totally panicked me. She mentioned that this was most likely related to the chemotherapy so waiting for repeat bloods this week again to see if levels drop.
Has anyone any experience of this or any advice please.
Good luck to all on treatment.
