Hi, How are you? Where are you writing from? The above set of labs suggests there is blockage of the bile duct (the pipe which empties bile juice from liver into the intestine) at some level. There are multiple reasons for this and can include something as simple as a stone inside the duct or could be something dangerous like cancer. The cause can be very easily found by doing a scan of the belly (ultrasound, CT, MRI etc.) and some simple blood tests to look for cancer. You could be treated based on that. Also, an endoscopy (ERCP) and stenting of the bile duct will bring down your jaundice levels. Medications usually will not work for this kind of jaundice. Hope this helped and hope you feel better soon. Please do not hesitate to contact me for further details or for sharing any scan reports - rxsuresh@gmail.com
