You must ask about getting an appointment with a dietician - I well understand how exhaustion and having cirrhosis/HE affect your appetite and abilty to eat but a single meal a day is not healthy for you at this stage. You should be able to get supplement drinks on prescription - they are a complete food alternative when you have difficulty eating. The BLT has a good page about things to do when you have difficulty eating. britishlivertrust.org.uk/in...
