I Have Liver Cirrhosis And Take Numerous Medicines To Combat
I have liver cirrhosis and take numerous medicines to combat it. Over the last few days I had no appetite and have noticed my eyes appear to bloodshot, not necessarily yellow like I have seen on the internet. My urine is a bit darker but usually becomes near clear during the day because I drink a lot of water. I think my face has a slight tint but I'm more concerned about eyes. This started around 5 days ago. I just moved here and I have established a new PCP and had new labs probably 2 weeks ago. She said my bilirubin was slightly elevated. I have been referred to a GI but they have not called for me to see that doctor. I have no edema in my ankles and due to the lactulose I take I have several bowel a day. The color of the stool is consistent as it's been for many months. Is there a way to tell if it is jaundice until I can get to see my specialist.
