Hi, I recently went through a full body blood test. Other tests were fine and values are within the normal range, but my direct bilirubin level is 0.4 (normal range 0.0 to 0.3) and my indirect bilirubin level is 0.9. I just want to check if there is any need to worry and if there is any advice regarding this? Warm regards.

A direct bilirubin of 0.4 (slightly above range) and indirect bilirubin of 0.9 are not concerning if your liver function tests are otherwise normal. Mild variations can occur due to dehydration, recent illness, or fasting. Drink adequate water and maintain a balanced diet. Avoid alcohol and heavy oily food to support liver health. You can book a Liver Function Test (LFT) after 2 to 3 months to recheck bilirubin levels for reassurance.
Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...
Take a LFT (Liver Function) Test Test or Take a Lipid Profile Test Test

I recently reviewed my blood tests and found the following issues dyslipidemia, elevated liver enzymes, grade 2 fatty liver on USG, and high uric acid. After one month of medication, my follow up report shows total cholesterol at 97, liver enzymes mostly normal (ALT slightly high but lower than before). However, I am experiencing significant weight loss and muscle loss, my current weight is 65 kg, down from 73 kg two months ago. My doctor has diagnosed these as post COVID effects, although I was asymptomatic and unaware of when I was infected.
