Skin color changes

Lately I have noticed how my skin changes color. I know that prolly sounds crazy, except my employees noticed it the other day. One employee looked at me and said "deb, your face looks yellow, go sit down, I will finish up here" Now the yellow went away, but lately I have been getting lots of remarks about my skin tone. It seems to be like a pendulum, even hubby said to me yesterday, "at least your skin is starting to look like its normal color again". I know I go back and forth feeling weak and dizzy, then I will get a burst of energy, then I am down again,.but I guess I was surprised to hear from so many that my skin color seems to be changing along with these "moments" you guys ever experience that? Its very weird i think.

Yea, it is generally seen in the eyes too but I believe I have seen  people with yellow and really didn't notice any sclerae discoloration. I have heard that with hemolytic anemia from TX the RBCs can get destroyed so quickly that the bilirubin released gets into the blood stream and can result in jaundice. So in that situation though it's liver related it doesn't signify a "liver" problem so to speak. Still, when I see a yellow person I think they have a problem. Mike

I can most definently get by w/a ball cap in my line of work but I have not been to work soooooo I just stay home and NOT comb my hair!, I just pull the loose stuff out on the patio in the morns.  Oh I do comb my hair but only when I wash it and w/a wide tooth comb, only blow dry and style if going out in public where folks know me.  Speaking of which, when we go to our favorite bar (I like to play pool these days for entertainment), think a O'Douls is out of the question just to be socialable?  I so miss that evening beer w/Rog especially when we get home from work, we get in the pool, lay over a float, have our few beers and do our catching up talk for the day.  Oh gosh I am going to miss that this summer!

nygirl, the same person whom sent you the Nixon, I had sent a pic of myself and Rog from Christmas 2004 just to show how GREAT my hair was THEN.  I was so jealous of my sissy's hair when she got here last night!

Cheers to ya w/a virtual BUD LITE!

For those conerned about jaundice, I think the whites of the eyes is where you will see it first. Mike, please set me straight if I'm wrong on this.

Fishdocsays: <i>my chest (you know the area that would have cleavage if my cleavage hadn't migrated to my belly button) seems to be taking the brunt of the sun issue, stings and itches if I expose to the sun</i>

Not to worry. By summer the hair in that area should thicken to provide a nice jungle-like skin protecting canopy.
