Unusually tired/yellowish eyes and skin
My husband will have the last of his 6 BCG treatments on Tuesday. The last couple days he’s been very tired, hard to get out of bed tired, which is very unusual for him and today I noticed his color seems a little off. He’s of Mediterranean descent so is swarthy and hard to tell but he looks a little yellow to me and the whites of his eyes definitely have a yellowish cast to them.
Is this urgent or can it wait until Tuesday or should I bring him to Urgent Care. I read these can be side effects.

Frannie,
He needs to be seen NOW and your urologist is a good start, not 3 days from now! This is symptomatic of a liver problem and yes, it could be something else and minor.

Frannie, call your husbands Urologist and ask. They always have someone on call and it will put your mind at rest.
