Liver symptoms?

Hi all, I am a 52 year old overweight female. I am experiencing itchy skin, swollen feet, very bad pain in left and right shoulder blades, dizziness, nausea, vomiting and soreness under right and left ribs. I've also had some breathlessness. Should I be worried?

You should see your gp maybe gallbladder do you have liver disease?

All of those symptoms are worrisome. Those symptoms can come from many different things gallbladder, kidneys, liver, even cardiac/heart issues. You need to see your GP and have a complete metabolic panel and Complete Blood count. This is a good place to start to figuring out what's going on.

I've already had my gallbladder ruled out so I am worrying that it's liver disease.

Oh bless you x you sure need to get checked out xx why do you worry it may be your liver ?. If you are like me I Google too much but could be a number of things I guess x

go to gp... they can do some blood tests to find out what is going...

ive always found... information is good and at least you can move forward if there is something that needs treating.

Hi, I suffered with shoulder pain for many years, it stopped after a bleed and cirrhosis diagnosis because I stopped drinking. The diaphragm, liver and shoulder area pain and distress signals are often confused by the brain, so shoulder pain can indicate liver issues. Advice go to GP and start getting tests. (other symptoms I generally ignored were swollen ankles, internal bleeds around the ankle, nose bleeds, problems breathing etc)

Best Wishes Tim

I have empathy with you as those are my symptoms. Do you take steroids? My symptoms are related to the course of steroids. Patience and tolerance and hope that you have

Good luck. JFM

Hi, no steroids, just beta blockers which I hate!
