Elevated values may indicate chronic infections and should be followed-up by your personal physician. A/G Ratio is a ratio between Albumin and Globulin. Provided Albumin and Globulin values are normal, a high or low ratio is not significant. Total Bilirubin is a bile pigment. It normally circulates in the plasma and is taken up by liver cells.
A ratio of 85 is not terribly high (normal is usually considered to be less than 30; high is greater than 300). Your slightly elevated ratio means that your kidneys are leaking a small amount of protein, which is usually an early sign of kidney damage, presumably due to your diabetes.
