Get ultrasound abdomen done as your liver function tests are slightly raised. Please share detailed medical history of your symptoms, then I can help you further to heal.

Your abdominal pain may be due to gastritis, bowel-related causes, fatty liver, or rarely medicine-related effects, especially since you are taking Methotrexate regularly and your liver tests are mildly elevated. Since the pain has been recurring for a year, further evaluation is advisable.
Recommended tests:
Repeat liver function test
Complete blood count
Kidney function test
Ultrasound abdomen
Viral hepatitis screening (HBsAg, Anti-HCV)
Serum amylase/lipase if needed
Next Steps
Please continue medicines only as advised by your treating doctor.
For any further queries or concerns, please feel free to consult me.
Health Tips
Watch for vomiting, fever, jaundice, weight loss, or black stools occur.
