Infant Jaundice, with repeated testing!

2018-04-19 08:02:30
My son of 15days is jaundiced with yellow eyes. Doctors have conducted upto three tests within 9days and the latest test shows Bilirubin Total: 11.84mg/dl and Bilirubin Direct: 0.96mg/dl. The doctor has asked for another test and am getting freaked out with constant bleeding of my son for blood. Please advise!
