High Rise in Bilirubin

2020-08-30 18:13:48
Hello Doctor, On my daily routine check it was found that my Total Bilirubin is increased by 1.8 mg/dl. After two days tested again it's showing 1.58 mg/dl. Also I have carried out with my full stomach USG (normal results) along with my direct and indirect Bilirubin and hepatitis B & C and it's normal. All supporting results are attached. Sometimes I feel little bit uncomfortable over my right side of abdomen for few minutes in a  Day. I have started taking lots of fruits in my diet specially Citrus and have increased intake of water too and I am an non alcoholic. Please guide me and help me out with this issue.
