You wrote: List of other diseases, conditions, or injuries and their treatment: looks like a broken blood vessel all over face from eyes to throat no treatment,whites of eyes are yellow,feels like acid in her throat."

Acid reflux is a condition in which the liquid content of the stomach regurgitates back up into the esophagus. The factors that contribute to this are a lower esophageal sphincter, hiatal hernias, esophageal contractions and emptying the stomach. Therefore, according to the data you've given, it doesn't seem she's currently experiencing a liver problem again, but she might request a full laboratory analysis,including testing the amino-transferase levels that control of the liver function.
