my husband has had a full blood count done and results have shown high billirubin of 26.
He was under a hematologist years ago when platelets dropped dangerously low but never received any diagnosis, other than an enlarged spleen & liver which he still has.
Is any of this linked, he does get fatigued, has lost some weight, itches, has some discomfort in abdomen. doctor has asked for another test in a month but I am a bit concerned.
A high bilirubin with liver and spleen enlargement can indicate hepatitis, liver and pancreatic cancer, cirrhosis, gall stones, and biliary stricture. It can even be due to hemolytic anemia. Since he is losing weight, and has abdominal discomfort, he should be investigated further regarding this with more specialized tests and a CT abdomen. You should consult a hepatobiliary specialist regarding this.
