How does Dubin-Johnson syndrome affect my body?

Dubin-Johnson syndrome causes a yellow waste substance to build up in your liver (bilirubin). This causes your skin and the whites of your eyes to appear yellow. You might not notice the yellow tone of your skin in low-light settings (indoors), but the yellow hue might be more vibrant in natural light (outdoors). Jaundice often appears on your face at first and can spread to your chest, stomach and other parts of your body. You might notice jaundice by looking in the mirror, opening your mouth and checking the reflection of your tongue. Jaundice can change the color of the area under your tongue to be yellow as well.
