Welcome to HCM.
Bilirubin 3.8 is higher it means something wrong with liver metabolism.
Go for further investigation to rule out diagnosis.USG abdomen,urine test,HbsAg,Sgpt.sgot.....
consult your physician for diagnosis and than take decision

Welcome to Healthcare Magic
How are the reports of direct and indirect bilirubin levels. Does she have fever. Any vomiting, pain abdomen. She needs to reduce fatty food intake, eat more fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. Drink plenty of water. Please provide the direct and indirect bilirubin levels and also whatever test was done then only it will be possible to comment. If she is fine she can travel, but it would be better to know why she has the problem.
