Is It Normal For Bilirubin Levels To Fluctuate Within Normal Range?

Had a question about lab blood work. Is it normal for bilirubin levels to fluctuate within normal range? My last few labs were .8 then a .6 now back to .8. I quit drinking 4 years ago so pay close attention to liver tests. All are normal range but just worried somewhat as they fluctuate,

Fluctuation of serum bilirubin levels is quite common and need not to be worried as long as it is within normal range. Most commonly it appears to fluctuate due to change in the lab and kit.
