A member asked:

Total bilirubin 2.5 (elevated), direct bilirubin 0.5 (elevated), indirect bilirubin 2.0 (elevated) all other liver enzymes normal. what causes this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Rerun test: 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. Having said that, you need to re do the tests in non-fasting state. With the exception of elevated direct bilirubin, the findings are consistent with Gilbert syndrome, which is not a disease.
