Mucus stool hi bili: Constipation? may be hemorrhoids, or food intolerances , or polyp or proctitis, ileitis . Is it blood in stool or food residuals? Would f/u/ w/ GI for colonoscopy
Have you had elevated bili before? That is not usual unless lifelong ( disease like Gilbert's, G6PD, thalasemia). Could be hemolysis, did they check pancreas? bile duct? on meds like gemfibrizol? alcohol ? f/u w/ GI
