I've just received a report showing my Bilirubin Direct level at 0.26. I'm really concerned about whether this is normal or if it's elevated. Could you explain what this means? Should I be worried about it?

I'm noticing this small swelling on my belly button that's been there for about a month now. Lately, my stomach's felt kind of bloated and I've been having some gas issues. Also, I feel kind of uneasy after eating meals. Should I be concerned about this, and what might be causing it?

I've been on medication for abdominal tuberculosis since September 2019, but I haven't noticed any improvement. In fact, I lost about 8 kg last December when I was hospitalized for severe stomach pain and couldn't eat properly for almost a month, even though I consistently took my meds. Could this be a case of MDR? How can I be sure if it's MDR?

I've been drinking whisky regularly, usually two pegs a day. Recently though, even when I have just one peg, my eyes turn red, and my head feels strained. It's gotten me a bit worried, so I've stopped drinking for now. Could you explain what's going on and if there's any medicine I could take for this?
