If your skin is yellow but the whites of your eyes are still white, you're probably just naturally yellow. If the whites of your eyes has turned yellow, go to the doctor immediately. It means you have jaundice which means you are having problems with your liver. The drugs you are taking may have to do with being tired but it could also be from an underlying condition. I would go talk to an MD about it for sure. I was told I looked really yellow for a long time and I was really tired and it turned out that I had hepatitis. Watch out for your health, it's very important.

Just because you dont really feel it doesn't make you not sick. You REALLY need to get checked, and yes, Xanax makes people tired, especially when the dose is too much for you. See a doctor and tell him everything. You might be surprised.

Mixing drugs like that may hinder your body from filtering them out efficiently...sounds like jaundice of the liver....toxins in your liver (I think). You should probably see a doc. You may not feel bad immediately from this but it is a big deal. Try reading up on that condition...wikipedia.com may help a bit...

Yellow skin alone is not a dead giveaway to anything. Possibly you are using a tanning lotion or bronzing agent? Non-Jaundice yellowing can also be caused by ingesting high amounts of Vitamin A.

Now, things to look for in addition to yellow skin are yellow mucous membranes or yellowing around the edges of the whites of your eyes, this could be a symptom known as Jaundice.

Jaundice is an indicator for problems with your liver function (hepatits, or chirrosis) or poor bile flow caused by an obstruction (tumor or gallstone) or a narrowing of the Bile ducts. If you suspect jaundice, see a doctor as soon as convenient, as Jaundice may be symptomatic of a life threatening condition.

Ask your doctor to do a "CBC no differential platelet hepatic function panel" on you.
You may be having kidney problems.
In the mean time, Google "jaundice".
