hi there, my daughter 26, had a full thyroid removal last november 2013, she is back at work but suffers from tiredness etc which i know is normal until they get the dose right of her thyroide replacement, my question is when i saw her the other day i thought her arms and hand looked a bit yello, not her face, i didnt want to alarm her because she is very emotional and has coped with this so well, i told myself it was a trick of the light but should i be concerned and if jaundice could it just be arms and hands,
HI. Well the first region to yellow under jaundice is the sclera of the eyes so if they're normal I don't believe is jaundice at all, and even without knowing the real cause of thyroid removing of your daughter usually is not common this kind of relation. So first I'd like to calm you then in the next check-up your daughter can have the functional liver tests done too, to exclude your doubts.
