What Does The Lab Reports Indicate?

My lab show bilirubin of 1.1 and my lab rates that as high, can some meds cause this to occur my cholesterol is total 157 HDL 62 and they rated that high as well and LDL is 76 with trigly at 93. I did back in the late 60 s have the hepatitis. What could be a reason for elevated bilirubin I am 71 yo I had a dinner party the night before test and I always stress out, I am obsessive about all going well. NO THANKS, I THOUGHT IT WAS A FREE SERVICE....

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your bilirubin is slightly high. If you have any symptoms then you should go for complete liver function test. Otherwise just monitor your bilirubin level.

Your HDL cholesterol is high. It is a very good sign. It is protective against cardiovascular disease. So no need to worry about high HDL cholesterol.

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.
