Brief Answer:

Thanks for using the Ask a Doctor service.
I have gone through your query and have checked the attached report. Taurine is an amino acid that is produced during metabolism. Elevated taurine levels could be due to a problem in the metabolic pathway so as to the conversion of taurine to its metabolite does not occur. The correlation of d-dimer needs to be evaluated. Prior to thorough evaluation, a clinical exome or more preferrably, whole genome sequencing should be sent for. It is only after that we can comment what exactly in happened to your child.
