    I would call the after hours emergency number but I would guess they will tell you to go to the ER.

Definitely see a Dr asap. Yellow eyes can mean kidney problems. Maybe you need fluids?

Wishing you all the best!

Unless you have been eating excessive carrots andvsuch, previous posters ate correct. 9nly a smart lady, not anyone with a medical degree but only times for real I had THIS
1) bad gallstones and Mr GallBladder went away lickety- splint
2.) k8dney problems
3 )acute pancreatic flare-up, turned out to be idiopathic acute pancreatitis
N9ne of these were things to ignore- all were hospitalizations- survived Them All but None were Fun! Get yourself.--checked out, immediately if not sooner!?

jus had the sleeve dont on Oct 28th

That is called jaundice. You may have a blocked bile duct. Definitely something going on with liver or gall bladder. You need to get in right away and be seen.

Yellow eyes are a sign of liver problems. Call your doctor and/or go to the ER.

Nurse here deffo get checked out today :) As already said usually liver/gallbladder. Can be common after our kinda surgery so go get sorted out, don't leave it and keep us updated ok? :)

ps. Always best to get checked out and be told it is nothing to worry about than leave it and it ends up serious :)

Not with a cold tho, don't go to the Er with a cold LOL ;):D:) (seriously we would get people in the middle of the night with a cold wanting medication! Crazy world)

If my skin was jaundiced I wouldn't be attempted to do (or attempting) anything at home, I'd be going to the doctor ASAP.

Did the jaundice go away on its own or did you need anything from the hospital/Drs?
