Uncertainty

Hello everyone! I am new to this site. I live in the US but this seems to be a great place to chat through the many questions and issues that come with a diagnosis of alcohol-related cirrhosis. I had a life-threatening episode back in April that landed me in the hospital for a week with a blood transfusion of 7 points, almost died from internal bleeding. Anyway I've been sober since and dealing with all the ailments that sneak up on you with this condition. Right now I am always cold and my legs ache after I've been sitting especially the ligaments behind my knees anyone else dealing with this, if so any suggestions? Thanks so much!

Are you sure it is related? I don't know how much you were drinking, but alcohol does tend to mask existing aches and pains, and sometimes make you radiate heat.
