Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have yellow eyes with itchiness. It suggest jaundice. You should go for total and direct bilirubin level. Your jaundice can be due to hepatitis, other liver disease or obstruction in bile ducts. You should go for ultrasound abdomen to search the cause.

You also have MTHFR gene mutation and factor v mutation. These leads to hyper coagulation and increased chance of clotting. You should take blood thinner for that.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
