High Rise in Bilirubin
Hello Doctor,
On my daily routine check it was found that my Total Bilirubin is increased by 1.8 mg/dl.
After two days tested again it's showing 1.58 mg/dl. Also I have carried out with my full stomach USG (normal results) along with my direct and indirect Bilirubin and hepatitis B & C and it's normal. All supporting results are attached.
Sometimes I feel little bit uncomfortable over my right side of abdomen for few minutes in a Day.
I have started taking lots of fruits in my diet specially Citrus and have increased intake of water too and I am an non alcoholic.
Please guide me and help me out with this issue.

Since the liver function tests are altered, it’s better to look for cause and treat. Stop alcohol , avoid liver toxic meds. Weight reduction and exercise daily.
Next Steps
