I don't think I can offer much help, itching is so frustrating and annoying. Some emollient cream maybe? Mistakes with appointments are equally frustrating, it all adds to the stress.

Try and find some time to get a bit of sunshine, listen to some birds, it has calmed me down this morning x Mel

Please look into **alpha hydrolic acid** vitamin D and a B-complex (milk thistle seems to help, too) for the itching. I buy these at CVS/ health food store. Gold Bond body lotion (with colloidal) lowering your sodium intake was a must* for me, helped with Ascites and the psuritis/itching.

Are you presently seeing a Doctor or consultant for your Liver?

[Faithfull in reply to Hidden]

No they discharged me January then while complaint I put into hospital about all the confusion as of mix up in diagnosis . Two letters came one saying sorry about mix up ,(pals)

Then one from liver dr saying she spoke to hep team and once and for all they would see if fibro scan which I had done she gave me results on two weeks later saying no scarring and her investigation finished,and as for the early cirrhosis diagnosed in another hospital which I was put in when I gave up my 30yr abuse of liver and drugs 15yrsago I'm fine and I'm one of the lucky ones .

So still in dispair of it all but I live in area no funds not for complex mental and phyical health .

Even though it's proven they go hand in hand. GP can't get appointment see same one months on end.

I told liver de about how much I abused my body that's when she changed.

As far as they are concerned they seem to despise anyone whos had, or still has, a substace / alcohol abuse problem. They dont give a shit about people like that- ironically the most likely people to have mental health problems!!

Thankyou for reply . I can't tell you how I'm getting so ill The area I'm in said I'm in a constant crisis and there is no funds and with complex comorbiditys and PTSD it far to much for them I been left to rot

Im disgusted. Why dont u think of reporing them or contact a social/welfair officer. Even think about getting in touch with newspapers- they will def be interested. Inbetween tell yourself that you are a beautiful and strong woman and dont let them win. 🖤
