Re: According to the blood test bilirubin and the bad cholesterol are elevated

[Guest guest]

Total Bilirubin is 1.8 and the LDL is 120. HDL 44.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

PS. No stones in the kidneys, gallbladder or liver.

You may have Gilbert's Syndrome, which is a common inherited disorder that

affects the processing by the liver of the pigments in the bile called

bilirubin. This results in an increase in the level of bilirubin levels in

the bloodstream. The liver itself is otherwise normal and people with

Gilbert's syndrome have a normal life expectancy. It is common and not a

dangerous condition in any way.

I suggest you do a google search to find out more.

Your cholesterol levels appear to be fine.

Hope this helps.
