I'm hoping Mrs D will see this and help me/us out.
I noticed last summer that my daughters skin looked kinda orange..Welli took her to see the doc.She was put on high amounts of IRON .I believe they had her taking 3 capsules per day..Anyway,this went on for 3 weeks or so,i took her back in and her levels were good,yet they wanted her to go have her gallbladder/liver checked.All turned out good with that.Here is the problem,her skin is orange AGAIN!!!
I know she could use some iron rich foods,but i don't eat much myselk and i'm not orange!
What type of doctor would be the best for her to go see about this.I know she can't take such high amounts of iron for long!
{She isn't taking any right now,i know not to self medicate}
I'm really worried there may be something wrong with her.
Thanks in advance for info you may give..

People who eat alot of foods rich in betacarotene may have orange tinted
skin.

But in my experience, this coloring signals hypothyroidism. When the thyroid is low, the body cannot convert betacarotene to Vit A properly in the liver.
so it builds up in the skin. Mine was mostly the soles of the feet and
palms of the hands.

Other types of liver problems may lend to this too.

The medical term for this is:
Carotenodermia.

It may also occur in diabetes. So a good check up is in order at the doctor's.

Thanks so much.I will call an endo doc on monday.
You are awesome!
Thanks again!
