Have just had blood test result back saying that my bilirubin level is high - they have taken two more tests (to double check - I guess). Question is - should I be worried? Had a look on the internet (big mistake) and mentions all sorts of scary things like liver disease etc. Any advice appreciated..

Could be Gilbert's Syndrome which is genetic and not a problem (has your bili been checked ever before?) Lots of viral illnesses cause high bili levels so it may improve spontaneously. Also nasty things can cause it, but the above are most common. I wouldn't worry quite yet, but you may need more tests to be sure.
Hope that is of help!
