Good morning,

I see that you have had no replies to your post. You do not mention what the cause of the ascites is. On the assumption that it is caused by cirrhosis of the liver you may find it useful to look at the publication on our web site - link below. Alternatively you may wish to call one of the liver specialist nurses on 0800 652 7330 (10:00 - 15:00 MOnday to Friday )
