Jaundice, I believe that is a symptom rather than a disease process. It has to do with liver functions.
If you have never had a full physical, ask your Dr. if you can have a fasting blood test for LFT. Liver Function Test. This will serve as a baseline for further evaluation as an adult with a history of drinking on the weekends type of thing. Once a week, normal whatever.
Seems like that is the yellowing of the eyes and or skin which is a late symptom of a liver problem. Has to due with bilirubin and so on.
Here is a link with more specifics on it: http://www.medicinenet.com/jaundice/article.htm

why don't you get your LFT done !
I had hepatitis and I studied alot about it...as far as I know it's not good for the liver. Why you want to risk your health over a drink ?
If I were you I would not drink
