I am so worried, my sister caught malária and things aren't good, she has been sick for week. The medicine the doctor gave her was very aggressive to her liver, stomach and kidneys She stopped taking it yesterday but this night she still had fever and she is yellow, even her eyes are yellow. The doctor told her that the yellow color is because of her liver and with time it will pass but we are worried about it.
This morning she went to hospital to do blood work, hope her blood values are better.
She is so far away from us, (Mozambique), it is awful because we cannot help her and she has two children at home (ages 7 and 3) that require a lot of work.
If you can and if you believe, please say a prayer for her

I wonder if is possible for her to see another doctor? - that medication was probably too strong and still didn't do the job, instead it aggravated another condition. The yellow color sounds like jaundice, a liver condition, which could be caused by a number of things - including medicines.

Her blood work showed that she no longer has malaria, She is now suffering the effects of the medicines. Yes, the yellow color is due to the liver.
