Hi Melwoods.

What did your doctor say? I'm new to this so can't speak from experience. But I have seen other posts where people have had similar experiences and they have went back down again. Hopefully this will be the case with yours. I would try not to worry at this point and see what the next ones say. Hope your keeping well otherwise.

Melwood is your bilirubin .20 or 20

20

How many mg is your Urso, and is that your bilirubin or direct bilirubin or total bilirubin. Usually there's a scale next to your blood result. Are you in USA or U.K.

I'm not sure how your country's lab runs your blood work. In the USA that would be high. What is your doctor saying about it
