    High albumin, protein, and billrubin

    Got bloods back. My AST and ALT are good

    But my

    Protein is 8.2 g/l. (6.1-8.1)
    Albumin 5.3. G/l. (3.6-5.1)
    Billrubin 1.5. (0.2-1.2)


    Im pretty concerned about these numbers. Thoughts on what the issue may be?

    My ALT is 28 (9-46)
    AST 27. (10-40)

    Looks like you have a liver issue. Have you been tested for Hepatitis? Do you drink alcohol? Do you take any liver protectors like NAC?

    Assume you were fasting? First two probably related to dehydration. Bilirubin is slightly elevated but I don't think I'd be that concerned with it. Meds can raise it as can alcohol, aspirin, etc. But keep an eys on it.

    I may have been dehydrated. Dont really remember. Def could
    Use more water. I also had some
    Bloodwork done a couple weeks ago and protein and albumin were in range but on the upper end. My ALP is good too

    NAC's great stuff. I take it year round.
    Yes, my inclination is just that. Just keep an eye on it in the future.
