Hi! I had a blood test a 4 months ago. It came back with high MCHC, and bilirubin level, although my GP says it is ok. Is it?

I think you need to follow this up. I only know bits of info with regard to PBC (primary biliary cirrhosis) and not much about other liver issues - I don't actually know what MCHC is! However, I'm sure high bilirubin is not good. Check the main BLT site - maybe email them - and also the PBC blog on here.
Take care and keep asking.
I think high bilorubin is associated with yellowing of the skin and eyes. This can be a sign of liver malfunction. I would have this investigated further. Many GPs do not have a detailed experience of liver problems. I would persist in having further investigations.
