Adult Jaundice help please

2 replies

Hi everyone,

I have had random bouts of Jaundice the past 5ish years. It comes and then goes again probably a few times a year, never worried me. I had a baby 14 weeks ago then we all caught covid. My whole body turned yellow including eyes but once I was over it it returned to normal colour.

Well today I have woke up and my eyes are slightly yellow again. I went on google and have seen in adults it is not good if you have Jaundice. I am now SH*TTING myself seeing what it could be. I have called the doctors and have a blood test monday.

Does anyone have any experience? Why would it come and go on it's own? Would it be persistent if it was something chronic? I am now freaking out big time. Wish I knew this was something to worry about sooner. I have also had elevated liver enzymes about 3 years ago in a routine blood test but they returned to normal after 6 weeks so no one was concerned. Now I'm worried this is connected. Someone please put my mind at ease! Sad

Worst case scenarios are now going through my head x

Hi,

This is interesting as my partner is currently in hospital due to a liver issue which is completely random. He’s not a big drinker and is young (27) and healthy. He did have covid a couple of weeks ago though.

What was your outcome? X
