If you are concerned, you're always best to get a second opinion if your doctor isn't taking your concerns seriously.

well, i went to see my GP doctor and told her about the test results. she just blew me off. she didn't even respond to it. i just dont understand. everything i read is telling me that something is wrong when bilirubin is found in the urine. i have other health issues too that the doctor just ignores. i feel its all related. i can never get a good doctor.

Have you been diagnosed with anything? If not, many times they wait to see if the bilirubin sicks around for a while and then become concerned. Could it be realted to whatever else you have already?

i haven't diagnosed with anything yet. there is something going on but the doctors i have been to arent trying to figure it out. they all just tell me "you have something going on but dont wat it is". i believe its multiple clots in my superficial veins but i cant get any doctors to run some type of test to look into it,since i dont show the classic signs that only 50% of people show. it been a long battle. if they are clots and this bilirubin keeps showing up... its not going to be a good out come.
