What Does Fluctuating Bilirubin Levels Indicate?

I am having fever (about 100 to 100.5 degree fareinheit)for past four months. I have taken all tests and everything is normal. But I have a small doubt regarding bilirubin in blood. On 26.11.2013 my blood bilirubin was 1.2 g. Bilirubin direct was 0.6 and indirect was also 0.6. But on 10.12.2013 blood Bilirubin total was 1.5. Direct 0.9 and indirect 0.6. Is there any problems with this?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your direct bilirubin is high. It can be due to some obstruction in biliary tract. You should go for complete liver function test and ultrasound abdomen. It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
