Name changed as very outing.
Dd is 19 and become very poorly. Blood tests show very raised LFT’s - which are thankfully now dropping after 2 weeks. However, her bilirubin is increasing and is now over 200. Everything has been ruled out and hospital thinks it’s a virus, possibly glandular fever but not confirmed yet. She has severe pain behind her bellybutton which sometimes spreads to her lower back, she feel nauseous and struggles to eat because of this. When she does eat her symptoms get worse and her tummy gets bloated. She’s obviously very yellow due to the high bilirubin levels. Nothing takes away her pain and we’re all now really struggling as a family.
Any ideas what could be going on and what we can do to help the pain? ... gallstones, gallbladder, hepatitis viruses, hiv, pancreatitis, Gilbert’s syndrome all been ruled out.
TIA.
