Non medical support

He there

Has anyone had any positive experiences with massage, mindfulness, yoga, etc. relating to ascites, cramps and tiredness that is common with cirrhosis. I know that anything herbal or unregulated is a big no-no, but I would welcome any advice that anyone has to give about other non invasive support they have found helps. Many thanks JX

Hi j. Due to my other mobility issues i cant do anything physical but i have not long downloaded an app by someone i follow on Twitter who is qualified in hypnotherapy and more. I must say it seems to be a new way of coping with my pain and insomnia and lethargy among all the other symptoms i have. I can but give it a go, im.sure there is someone on here who has done something to help.. good luck.. linda

It's always worth a try. None of them are going to do you any harm. Just don't try to over do the yoga at first as it can make you feel a bit nauseous. But have fun and enjoy it 😆

Hi my father did not have the problems you have he had arthritis of the spine I took him to see a hands on healer type person he did not want to go but my mother had paid and he would not waste the money I had to lift him out of my car and almost carry him in to see her an hour later my car door opens and he jumps in like there is nothing wrong with him at all I was gob smacked all i can say is it does work but I also think there are a lot of fakers out there doing it try and talk to local people to you who have had it done and had good results

Hope this helps

Dave
