Good morning,

I am very sorry, this forum is for people with a liver condition so we are not going to be able to help you.

Apart from Cirrhosis and other stuff, I am awaiting an operation on my eye for something similar. I’m retired, so the waiting doesn’t affect any job situation for me. You honestly have enormous sympathy from me for the whole and hole situation.

It is quite tragic for so many people at present. May I kindly suggest to you that, given your circumstances, try hard not to be ‘fed up’. Yes it is hard and yes things could be better but just try to think and ponder on the good things you have in your life. Be thankful you can see anything else at all, especially if it is beautiful. Many others cannot see anything!!!!! When things get tough, as they seem to be for most people globally right now, we tend to easily fall into one of two significant camps:-

1). We are mostly negative about stuff or

2). We are mostly positive about stuff.

There is no shame about being negative or even as bad as being clinically depressed- on occasions, but if you stay there, you will find no joy or happiness in life, only misery, anger, frustration and that throw away comment, born out of a selfish heart.......why me?????????

Well, truthfully, why NOT you???????

When the whole world is suffering and struggling, why not you as well??????

Turn around your thoughts and make a list every day, of 10 things you are either, grateful for, happy about, find beauty in, or give pleasure to others, or, indeed, anything POSITIVE you can hang your hat on. If you do this for a while and STILL come back on here and say that you’re ‘fed up’ then I will be surprised xxx
