Guest guest Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Hi folks, Does anyone know, is there a certain threshhold of bilirubin in the blood--or even a general range--at which one starts to turn yellow? Eight days ago my bilirubin was on the high end of normal and my skin and eyes looked fine, but tonight I'm noticing a sudden yellow cast to my skin and my eyes have a hint of yellow as well. I remember very well what I looked like when my bilirubin was around 9 earlier this year, and I am definitely not there yet; just trying to make a guesstimate of where my levels are right now, as I just start to turn that beauuuuuuutiful dandelion color again. Time for a new stent, I guess. I've been continuously stented and re- stented since May for an extremely stubborn dominant hilar stricture, but at my Sept. 10th ERCP my docs decided to leave the stent out for a trial run for a little while again. Not working, I guess. >:{ Genevieve UC 1983, J-Pouch 1999, PSC 12/07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
