Hi
Sorry for your wife.she is sufferring with jaundice and now fever and cough.there are so many causes for jaundice.its important to exclude viral hepatitis ,gall bladder calculi , and cholestasis of pregnacy.go for simple investigations like blood tests for hepatitis b& c , ultrasonogram to look for liver , gallbladder and biliary system.if everything is normal it might be cholestasis of pregnancy.you didnt mention whether your wife having itching or not.what ever medications you are taking is sufficient.avoud fried or oily foods.take opinion with gastroenterologist .
Thank you
