Hi, I am very tense as my report shows high PDW, high RDW, low PCT, and high bilirubin. Please see the report and tell me whether this is very serious. I had a kidney stone problem, and most stones were expelled through urine; only one small stone is left. I am having gastric issues. Three months ago, I had severe gastric problems, but after taking rabeprazole for 45 days, the symptoms decreased. My KFT and iron reports are normal. Please advise?

These blood changes may suggest reactive marrow changes or early liver involvement. Raised bilirubin warrants attention. Please take Peripheral Smear, LFT and Ultrasound Abdomen.
Dr. Siri Suggests...
Take a LFT (Liver Function) Test Test or Take a PERIPHERAL SMEAR Test

View allI took 100 mg Mazetol for 10 days, and for the next 7 months I did not have any issues. After seven months, the problem recurred along with Widal fever, and I took Mazetol again for 10 days, after which I was fine for 8 months. Now, I have been experiencing the same symptoms for the past 4 days. My liver function test shows serum bilirubin of 3.30, while all other parameters are normal. What could be the cause, and what should I do?

I have been suffering from acute Hepatitis E infection for the past 3 weeks. My liver enzymes have decreased significantly but are still above the normal range. However, my bilirubin has remained very high at 18 for the past 2 weeks, having risen from 2.13 to 6.23 to 18.77. My attending physician has suggested steroids to help reduce bilirubin. Are steroids safe to use in this situation, and if taken, is there a risk of a rebound increase in bilirubin after a few days or weeks? My PT/INR had also increased but is now normal. Please advise on whether I should take steroids.
