Maybe nothing?: I agree with your doctor that the vitamin D needs to be addressed. I would typically recommend an OTC vitamin D3 supplement...probably 2000 a 5000 IU daily with a meal. The bilirubin may mean some slight liver stress...Even moderate alcohol intake, for example. The albumin? Probably won't stay elevated. Recheck labs in 3-6 months IMO. And try milk thistle for liver health perhaps? Good luck!
