Gilbert's Syndrome

Has anyone here been diagnosed with Gilbert's Syndrome? Also known as familial hyperbilirubinaemia? My mum has just been diagnosed and as it is caused by an autosomal dominant gene I have a 50% chance of having it.

All the info says it is relativley harmless but can have side effects such as nausea, chronic fatigue, IBS jaudice etc etc. These are all things I have suffered from regularly throughout my life only to be told there is nothing really wrong with me. I am going to be tested asap.

Would be interested to talk to anyne with this condition to see how you manage it.
