Dear patient
You have got altered liver function test. Normal bilirubin level in the blood is 1 mg / dl. Increased level of bilirubin is due to altered liver function. Plus your liver enzymes are also increased which indicates liver damage. This is known as hepatitis or jaundice. Your lipid profile Is within permissible range. You need to consult expert physician and get you self examined.
