Gilbert Syndrome, Leukopenia & Gastritis: Understanding Health & Future Risks


Question
hi, i am 18 yrs old and i have gilbert syndrome. i also have leukopenia and gasritis. (h.pylorai)Am I cosidered as a healthy person? what are the risks of my future children?

Answer
Gilbert's is a nothing disease.... only if it causes itching is it significant.  Gastritis is a temporary disease/condition and if treated it resolves.  Leucopenia is a finding and not a disease in itself.... it may be due to a viral illness, and if rechecked will probably be normal.

Gilbert's is a genetic disease, so you had it all your life.... it was found because of the lab tests that show it.  You are healthy, and have no risk of passing something bad to your children given the above info.
