Hello again luckylips50, please may I ask if your outlook towards liver disease has changed now? You were very negative in your last post over a year ago which read....

"ok i am new on here i have liver scaring had a biop 5 yrs ago was very painfull refuse to have another also refused over tests can t see the point as i understand it there s no teartment".

Pain in the area you speak of can be from the Serous membrane that surrounds the liver. The liver doesn't have any pain receptors, so It can't tell you when it's becoming damage or in need of help. However, this thin membrane does have pain receptors. If the liver becomes enlarge or begins to swell, this may well cause some pain and discomfort. The other cause of pain could be coming from the gall bladder. Sweating is also very common as one of the livers 500 different functions is to control the bodies heat and compensate for any changes in temperature.

Are you by any chance diabetic? I ask this because some times the liver may become insulin resistant. This means that the pancreas tries even harder to produce more insulin.

I really hope your attitude has changed, and that your going to be taking your liver damage more seriously. I don't mean to sound harsh, but almost everyone on here comes here for advice, help and support. They take their liver issues seriously, and with great concern. So please, join with us and try to be interested in your health. Before you can learn to "Love your Liver", you must first learn to respect it.

Good Luck luckylips50

Hello lucylips50,

Welcome to the forum where you will be able to get advice and support from others with experience of liver disease. However, this is not a medical forum and none of the members are qualified to diagnose or give specific medical advice.

To avoid misinterpretation and undue concerns, your symptoms can only properly be understood by a qualified medical practitioner with full knowledge of your unique medical history and circumstances.

Please don’t be discouraged from using the forum as there are members with a great deal of understanding and knowledge of living with liver disease as a patient or carer. They will be able to give you the benefit of that experience with understanding and empathy that can only come from those with first hand involvement.

On Monday to Friday between 10 - 3pm you can call the British Liver Trust helpline. There you can talk with a qualified and experienced nurse who can advise. Unfortunately the line is not available on Bank Holidays so you can call after the coming bank holiday on the 27th August.
