[|AI|]  Hello, Based on your symptoms and initial laboratory report it seems you were suffering from viral hepatitis (probably hepatitis a or e). Your last report shows significant decrease in ALT but rise in bilirubin. This can happen in viral hepatitis. Bilirubin initially increases, and it decreases after the ALT levels have decreased. In your case the symptoms have also improved. I would advise you to have your serum bilirubin and ALT rechecked after a week of the last test. If bilirubin is not showing a decreasing trend then you should consult a gastroenterologist for detailed evaluation. If there is significant decrease in bilirubin you need not worry, but just to be sure repeat the test weekly till the values are normal.  Though tobacco will not have effect on your current illness, it is best you give it up altogether.  Hope that helps.  Wishing you good luck. Chat Doctor.
