[|Human|] Hi, My father currently has increased bilirubin (1.3), microalbuminuria (143) and trace ketones as of July 2013 -- should I be worried about these numbers and what should be done about it? He has been on Atorvastation 10mg since June 2012. For the last 10 years his bilirubin was around 0.7-0.9. He was negative for ketones the year before, and I dont have results for his microalbumin for previous years. His cholesterol levels has improved since taking the Atorvastation from LDL 125 mg/dl to LDL 71 mg/dl as of July 2013. His a1c has also improved from 6.7% to 6.4% as of July 2013. He is not taking any anti-diabetic medications at this time.Medication list:Atorvastation 10mgMultivitaminFish Oil
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for your query. You mentioned that your father is not having anti-diabetic medications. Is he a diabetic? Ketone in urine in a diabetic should be taken seriously. I recommend that he be admitted in a hospital for correction of the ketosis and glucose status. I shall worry about the other parameters after his ketosis is corrected. I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction. Wishing you father all the best. Rajiv K Khandelwalhttp://goo.gl/SuCjl
