Elevated bilirubin 4 days after exposure is less likely due to any sexual transmitted disease because the incubation period of all viral related STDs is much longer than 4 days. Your bilirubin level had to be quite high to be admitted & I wonder how were other liver function tests and your symptoms at that time besides the jaundice? Drug induced hepatitis is strongly suspected with that time frame
