Question 1

how bad is level 10 jaundice (does the 'level' thing indicate bilburin levels or something else?? ) in 21 year old?

Accepted Answer

Bilirubin: The level 10 does represent your bilirubin level. It suggests there is some problem with your liver. Your doctor will have to investigate further what that it depending on your signs and symptoms. Good Luck and keep us updated.

Question 2

i done my lft test my sgot is 44 sgpt is 45 total bilburin is 1 direct bilburin indirect is 0.4 bilburin direct is 0.6
total alkaline pospatase is 102

Accepted Answer

See below: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, Your results are essentially normal. Do not drink alcohol or take any street drugs.    
Wish you good health!

Question 3

take lipitor 40mg should i expect my alt ,ast ,ggt and bilburin to go slightly higher compared to when i was not taking this medication. thank you   ?

Accepted Answer

NO- buit recheck: gularly- statins can cause liver enzyme elevations: this is a reported side effect.   Follow up with PCP.

Question 4

my liver enzymes from last year to this year went from : alt 31 to 37,ast 26 to 31 and bilburin 16 to 18 .all a little higher but normal.is this okay ?

Accepted Answer

Normal?: Bilirubin 18 is abnormal mg/dl but I assume you mean 1.8 that is normal.if you drink alcohol decrease the amount.You will get lab variation and hydration status  that will account for the difference that you state.In other words no significant change and I would not worry.It is ok.

Question 5

ggt went from 58 to 88 in one year all other liver test ast,alt ,bilburin,albu,globulin,all normal could new medication i take ritrovil cause this ?

Accepted Answer

Not common: Retrovil is associated rarely with elevated ALT's and clinical liver disease, so it makes an isolated elevation in GGT from this medication less likely.  Remember alcohol consumption can also cause an elevated GGT.  Is there a reason why you are having GGT's checked if all your all liver function tests are normal?

Question 6

diagnosed with giant liver hemagioma 17 cm transverse .liver panel alt 23 ast 21 bilburin 18
albulim 45 all normal except high ggt 95 and alp 125 why ?

Accepted Answer

Biliary obstruction: The elevated enzymes indicate compression of the bile ducts in your liver by the large mass

Question 7

found out that biliburin level is 37 umol. what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

3 bili types: Please discuss this with your physican. Here is a rough ieda of normal:
normal bilirubin range in adults: 

direct bilirubin: 0.1 mg/ dl to 0.3 mg/ dl (1.7 mmol/ l to 5.1 mmol/ l)

indirect bilirubin: 0.2 mg/ dl to 0.8 mg/ dl (3.4 mmol/ l to 12.0 mmol/ l)

total bilirubin: 0.3 mg/ dl to 1.0 mg/ dl (5.1 mmol/ l to 17.0 mmol/ l).

Question 8

is 2.3 serum bilurbin is high?

Accepted Answer

Depends on what: Units of measurement you are referring to.  But if your total or direct bilirubin is measured in mg/dL, then 2.3 would be elevated; not significantly but still on the high side.

Question 9

my biliruin,total serum is 1.6 and how reduce is sir?

Accepted Answer

The question is why?: A total serum bilirubin is a little higher than the usual range in people. The question is why... meaning one needs to find out why. A total bilirubin of 1.6 is fine in certain people or in certain situations, but is a sign of disease in other people or in other situations. One can work with his primary care doctor to first find out why.

Question 10

bilubrin increasing day by day and now become total 41. how serious is this?

Accepted Answer

It is serious: "Normal results for a typical bilirubin test are 0.1 to 1 milligram per deciliter (mg/dL) of total bilirubin (direct plus indirect) and 0 to 0.3 mg/dL for direct. These results may vary slightly from laboratory to laboratory and are typical for adult men. " (http://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/bilirubin/basics/results/prc-20019986)
