A member asked:

I have fatty liver my enzymes are usually slightly elevated the past 2 mths they r normal but my bilirubin is still elevated was 1.2 has been for a yr?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Gilbert's : Hi. Your slightly elevated bilirubin is probably unrelated to fatty liver. Your bilirubin is probably mildly high because of an insignificant defect in bilirubin conjugation. Have your doc check total and conjugated bilirubin. With Gilbert's, total bili is high and conjugated bili is low.
