filling area enclosed by multiple curves

I want to fill an area enclosed by multiple curves. I'm currently using the fill command to achieve it. Below is the figure I'm getting. Ideally, i should get the filled in color only inside the enclosed space (on the right side). Fill command worked for me in my earlier usage. Not sure what is happening here!
xdata and ydata are attached along with. The code I'm using has bee given below;
fileID = fopen('dataX.txt','r');
formatSpec = '%f';
xd = fscanf(fileID,formatSpec);
fileID = fopen('dataY.txt','r');
formatSpec = '%f';
yd = fscanf(fileID,formatSpec);
figure(101)
fill(xd,yd,'g','facealpha',0.3);axis equal
Any clue to sort this out is appreciated.
Thanks

Have you tried reversing the direction? Probably won't matter, but...
Alternatively to figuring out what's wrong here, you could try to draw second patch of the LH side that follows the bifurcation and then the three points and see if can fill it with background color to simulate the effect. A hack, yes, but...
Otherwise try patch() or break the above into mutiple sections -- looks like the pointy ends are confusing area as to what it's trying to enclose.
