I think the key here is that the whites of your eyes are not yellow. With jaundice, and Gilberts syndrome, the eyes also go yellow.
Yellow-tinged skin is a symptom of hypothyroidism, as the liver doesn't function so well when hypothyroid. I can personally attest to this - I have Gilberts syndrome, and am hypo - and my main symptoms are liver-related.
I would get your liver tested by your GP - just to rule out anything ominous. Then forget about him, as he will be useless for thyroid matters. Can you see Dr Peatfield? - he's probably your best bet.
