<s>[INST] I have had two recent bilirubin test results that are abnormally high.  The first, part of a liver function panel, was 1.6.  The second was a total and direct bilirubin test.  The total was high, 2.0.  The direct was at the upper end of the standard range, 0.2.  My doctor said that these results indicated Gilberts Syndrome, but she minimized its significance.  She said that nothing needed to be done about it.  She said that it was hereditary.  She didn't indicate any prognosis.  What can you tell me about this? [/INST] Hi,Thank you for getting back.Gilbert syndrome causes mild yellowing of eyes due to increased bilirubin.It occurs due to deficiency of one liver enzyme.In this syndrome there will be no symptoms except for jaundice.Situations like fasting may elevate the jaundice.The prognosis is excellent and no treatment is required.Hope I have answered your query.Regards. </s>
