Does anybody else have yellow eyelids and underneath area of the eye a yellow/dark shade?

Not sure if this is linked to thyroid issues however it mentions online liver/gallbladder or heart/fatigue related but it's very vague, so I just wondered does anybody else have this or know what it's caused by?

You don't mention yellow, fatty lumps but could it be dislypidemia where hypothyroidism can be a factor?. See medicalnewstoday.com/articl...

I think there are natural treatments.

How is your weight? I mention weight because I developed very dark shadows around my eyes, & a doctor mentioned I could probably see the shadows better because I had lost weight. I don’t know that I buy this idea that eye shadows become more visible with weight loss, but this doctor seemed to think so. So I thought I’d ask.

I haven’t noticed yellowing skin. Should the whites of your eyes get yellow then you know you are dealing with jaundice, & need hepatitis blood testing, etc. I was recently tested for hepatitis because everyone over a certain age in the states is now routinely screened for hepatitis (or so I was told).
