A direct bilirubin on 0.3 is normal. You do not have to worry that your liver is failing. If there are any other symptoms you are experiencing please consult me directly.

Even slightly high direct bilirubin is not normal, it does indicate some liver problem, you can repeat the tests after 3 weeks & till then do strict diet control
