I'm looking at my bilirubin levels and trying to figure out if I should be worried. My direct bilirubin is 0.4, indirect is 0.6, and the total is 1. Does this sound normal, or is there a chance I should be concerned about jaundice or anything else?

Based on your bilirubin levels, everything seems to be within normal range. Direct Bilirubin of 0.4 mgdL, Indirect Bilirubin of 0.6 mgdL, and Total Bilirubin of 1 mgdL are all within normal limits. There is no need to be concerned about jaundice at this time.

I've been feeling like there's something in my throat, almost like a lump or leftover food. Its kind of weird, and I also notice these small burps or like there's something stuck that makes me want to manually burp. Lately, I've been having some gas issues too, especially after I eat. Any idea what's going on?

Your symptoms suggest acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), where stomach acid flows back into the throat, causing discomfort, lump sensation, and burping; consider antacids, proton pump inhibitors, or H2 blockers, and lifestyle changes like avoiding trigger foods, eating smaller meals, and elevating your head while sleeping.
