Hello all,

I am searching the internet and still haven't found an answer, I hope
somebody here can help. My father is experiencing liver failure due to
metastised colon cancer, diagnosed at stage 4 about 5 years ago. He is
very jaundiced now- really yellow eyes and skin, and very low energy.
He just got a lab back showing the billirubin count at 17. It was at
12 only last week, and his ERCPs are no longer helping. We know it's a
high count - but what is the range? In other words, how high can the
count be before it's extremely dangerous? Has anyone experienced a
higher billirubin count?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Blessings to all of you,
cat
