I recently had my bilirubin levels checked, and I'm a bit worried because my total bilirubin is at 2.5. My direct bilirubin seems fine, but it's my indirect bilirubin that's high at 2.2. Everything else like ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, albumin, globulin, and the AG ratio is normal. I had jaundice about four months ago, and I'm wondering if this could be related. What could be causing this high indirect bilirubin, and is there anything I can do to bring it down? Would really appreciate some advice.

View allI've been having gas troubles for the past 3 years, like burping a lot through my mouth and feeling the need to go to the bathroom, plus I'm losing weight. Every time it gets really bad, I see a doctor, but all they say is to eat food at the correct time. I've done blood tests, and they didn't find anything wrong. Now I'm down to just 47 kg and I don't have any stomach pain, just a little irritation. Can you suggest anything that might help?
