What Does The Serum Biluribin Level Of 1.83 Indicate?

My age is 48 years, height 5'8" and weight is 74 kgs. I had a bout of dengue in october 2010 but recovered completely. Although i do not feel any apparent problem i had a check up done and at present my serum bilirubin level is 1.83. Does it indicate any kind of problem? What is the treatment required, if any?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your bilirubin level is slightly increased. It suggest jaundice. It can be due to liver disease or some other cause. First of all you need to go for SGPT, GGT, Peripheral smear examination, and ultrasound abdomen. If your SGPT is high then go for hepatitis profile and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
