Hi..
Liver functions are suggestive of predominantly indirect increased bilirubin. Jaundice (yellow discolouration of eyes) usually develops when Bilirubin is more than 3.
It is important to get a Fibroscan done in patients with Fatty liver disease to rule out underlying liver fibrosis.
If Fibroscan is normal, the increased indirect bilirubin shouldn’t be a cause of concern
Next Steps
Get Fibroscan done
