What causes high bilirubin level in blood?
Patient: I have had my blood tested twice in the last 2 months and it is coming back unsatisfactory on the Bilirubin being high. I went to the doctors initially because of itching skin all over , this has been ongoing for a few months now- the doctors response is to tell me to get my blood checked again in 6months time thats it  - should I be concerned, should i be asking for more to be checked at this time? Doctor: Hi, dearI have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.You may have some liver disease. Itching is common with high bilirubin level. You should go for complete liver function test once. Then you should 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.
