Hello, Group:

I just received the results from my life insurance blood chemistry
results, everything is normal except the "Bilirubin Total."  The
Bilirubin total is 2.1, and their normal range is from .1 - 1.5
(MG/DL), so how concerned should be?

I'm 29/yrs old, non-smoker, and a vegetarian (except for seafood).

6ft 150lbs.

Regards,

--SF

You may want to google Bilirubin. I checked my 1000 page medical book and
found out that fasting and malnutrition may cause a rise in bilirubin
levels so your vegetarian diet may have been the reason. You may also want
to google Gilbert syndrome. It can also cause your Bilirubin levels to be
higher than normal. Since all of your other levels were normal, I doubt
that you have anything to worry about. I am not a doctor.

That does not shock me. The insur. doctor probably believes you have
Gilbert syndrome which should not cause you to die within the next
30 to 50 years.
