A member asked:
Bilirubin direct and indirect fluctuate (indirect 1.2, direct 0.1, total 1.3...another test: indirect 0.43, direct 0.54, total 0.97), lfts normal.

Might be Gilbert's: A relatively large portion of the population has something called gilbert's, which is completely harmless, and causes elevated indirect bilirubin in times of stress or illness. If you are completely healthy and just have an elevated indirect bilirubin from time to time, it is almost certainly gilbert's. Ask your doctor what he/she thinks.

Why would gilbert's syndrome not be diagnosis until middle age if genetic? No history of elevated bilirubin prior to 6 mos ago; other lfts were elevated, now ok.

Had Bilirubin range between 12 - 18 umol/L 3 tests prev 10 yrs. In past year have had results of 25. 19 and 21 in that order. All elevated with zero symptoms + all liver tests normal. If Gilberts why not higher on prev tests? Should I worried?
