bloods back, high bilirubin :(

I recently got the lab corp $50 test and everything came back fine however bilirubin measured 1.4 and a little google research shows high bilirubin can lead to jaundice. I've done two cycles, the last finished six months ago. Both times pct with nolvadex. The only other thing that caught my eyes was test was 431, I don't have pre bloods so I have nothing to compare to, but that seems low. Should I be worried? Also if you guys want any other values feel free to ask... I'm on my phone though so I can't copy and paste the whole thing :(

Did they break down direct vs indirect bilirubin?
Alkaline phosphatase?
AST/ALT?
Lipids, albumin?

If everything else is totally normal i'd be less concerned. If just alk phos is high and/or the hyper bili is mostly direct it may be cholestasis (gallbladder isnt emptying) vs liver dysfunction. Although both can be caused by AAS. Were your 2 cycles orals or injectables?

Test of 431; isnt that within normal limits? Like, not even on the lower end of normal?
 
It just says total bilirubin as 1.4 , alkaline phos is 68 , ast,alt are both 17 , albumin is 4.4 , sorry I dont see lipids but everything seems fairly normal, I just figured test of 431 was kind of low... They were oral cycles also.
 
don't sweat it

Most likely, you're liver will be back to normal in under a week, I'm serious. You're liver is the one organ in the body that has regenerative properties, you'll be fine. I'm speaking also from personal experience, as well as others. I would cut out the orals for a while, and ease off the booze.

Yeah, this is true from a medical standpoint. Although not a fact to celebrate or test to the limits, the liver is an incredibly resilient organ with great regenerative ability. Long term insults such as alcoholism, or chronic hepatitis are generally what lead to fibrosis and irreversible liver damage.

Your labs look normal otherwise imo. Lay off phs as suggested above. See a doc if youre getting persistant symptoms
 
Always include the "NORMAL RANGES" alongside YOUR lab results so things can be assessed in relative terms. ;)
