Recovered. Thanks for being there.

Hi, one day after eating too many beans or something, I turned yellow, my eyes, my skin, dark urine, gray feces. I looked like my grandfather did before he passed away, and I was greatly worried. I was able to read through posts of many of the great people here to learn more about the disease and your experiences and it gave me hope. It was very scary, my bilirubens shot up and I got taken into the hospital where the local doctor wanted to cut out my gall bladder. Thankfully, I got sent in for an internal ultrasound through the mouth and it did not detect any problems with the gall bladder, no blockages, and hence no surgery. And after a week or two, it all resolved and I've been fine ever since. Your people online here made me much smarter about what was going on. Thank you and I pray that you all feel better soon.
