Brief Answer: XXXXXXX Syndrome

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for uploading the reports.
You bilirubin is mildly above normal range. The indirect component is high. And your bilirubin level is fluctuating. The liver enzymes are within normal limits.
Hemoglobin is within normal limits.
Peripheral smear is normal.
These indicate that the fluctuating bilirubin level is due to a condition called XXXXXXX syndrome.
This is is a harmless condition and no medication or treatment is necessary.
The bilirubin level will fluctuate if you are dehydrated, if you are fasting.
There is no need to worry about this condition.
Regards,
Dr.R.K
