Elevated Bilirubin

by jango38, Feb 20, 2009 12:48PM
Recent blood test showed BILIRUBIN TOTAL of 0.6 with BILI DIRECT OF 0.37 which was indicated as being high.
  
Do I have a problem? What should be done?

Did they do other Liver Chemistry Labs? I know they usually do prothrombin time, AST and ALT, etc, The puzzle pieces help a hepatoligist to ascertain what type of liver malady may be occuring. What did your doc say???  (besides test again in 3 months - haha)?

My tests were done on 2/17. Unfortunately my Doc is unavailable until  Monday?
ALBUMIN      =  4.0
AST (SGOT)  =  16
ALK  PHOS   =  72
ALT               =  34
My report did not show prothrombin time
BILIRUBIN TOTAL = 0.6
BILI DIRECT         = 0.37                  (reference 0.0  -  0.2 )

Thank You for your reply
