Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your high bilirubin level is not due to malnourishment or vitamin D deficiency.
You may have some liver problem like viral hepatitis or cholycystitis.
You should go for complete liver function test including hepatitis test and ultrasound abdomen. It will give exact cause of your jaundice. then take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
