Hello. Thanks for writing to HCM.
I read and understand your question very well.
I try my best to explain you.

As you have elevated bilirubin level and sever tenderness in right side of abdomen, it is not necessary that you have same out come as your brother. There may be possibilities of liver pathology like liver damage , fatty liver, cirrhosis , jaundice etc.
I suggest to do CBC ( complete blood count ) with peripheral amear , Serum AST , Serum ALT also.

I suggest to consult a good physician for this.
Thanks and Regards.
