[|AI|]  Hello, Your laboratory reports seem to be consistent with diagnosis of viral hepatitis. In a normal person the fraction of indirect bilirubin is more than that of direct bilirubin. In hepatitis the bilirubin increases, with a greater increase in direct bilirubin. Now as you are recovering the total and direct component of bilirubin will decrease. Your last report is absolutely normal. The indirect bilirubin has increased very marginally as compared to the previous report but is within normal range. You need not worry about it.  You can have a normal diet now.  Hope that helps.
