by gyp260, Jun 18, 2008 07:33AM
I have had further blood tests and my Bilirubin levels have increased again. They were 26 and now are 37. My doctor as said normal level is up-to 17. Can anyone tell me if there is a way of reducing blirubin levels. My docotor as said its nothing to worry about, but I am concerned as they bilirubin levels keep increasing. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.

I should have said, I'm in England and our measuring system on levels is completely different to the USA. I'm told 17 is the normal level and my have been elervated for 2 years now, with the latest reading being 37. All my doctor as suggested is eating bananas for extra potasium and I will have a follow up test in a couple of months. I just wondered if anyone new what else can decrease the levels. Thanks again any help will be appreciated
