Consult your Gastroenterologist to see how you get rid of it, though I'm not sure you can get rid of it. Be happy that Gilbert's Syndrome is a benign condition that will not cause you harm. That is the important thing.

Gilberts Syndrome does harm me. I stresses me out, it makes me feel gross because of my yellow eye color, its depressing, basically, i makes me feel like ****. So yes, it does harm me. I am not happy.

Dear Matthew,

I found a great website, all about Gilbert Syndrome, with LOTS of ideas on WHAT TO DO TO MINIMIZE the symptoms!!!!! It also includes a message board, so you can talk with others who can tell you what works for them!!!

This website was created by a Gilbert's Syndrome patient, for GS patients!

Click on this link:

This was the first on a list of websites that I found by typing in "Gilbert's Syndrome" in the address bar of my Microsoft Internet Explorer.

I think you will be happy to find this website! It looks like it will really help you to feel and look better!

Sincerely, Concerned lady
