Anyone seen there bilirubin levels go up from either their chemo treatments or any of the nausea meds...?? Ive read that xeloda can make some peoples bilirubin levels go up but that isnt a medication that is in the mix right and have seen a SLOW but steady rise in bilirubin levels, especially after the first round of emend.

Thanks & Be Well

    My bilirubin has been going
    My bilirubin has been going up, actually doubled in the last three weeks, and I'm not receiving sny treatment at the moment. Whether its the cancer or the drugs, it means my liver function is impaired. Of course my other liver function tests are bad as well. I know this isn't quite what you were asking for.
