Is elevated Lipase normal with Cirrhosis

Hello. I have been worried about liver disease for over a year.  I have been to the GI several times for answers regarding my URQ pain but my doctor does not seem concerned because my blood work is normal.  I know something is wrong.  I was a heavy drinker for over 20 yrs and quit 16 months ago.  I have lost weight  and I believe that I have Terry's Nails.  My recent lab test came back with my Lipase at 399 range (73-393). I'm trying to find out if elevated Lipase is common in people with Cirrhosis.   I do have a follow up appt soon with my GI, but I'm getting really anxious.  Thanks for your help
