Hi

And thank you in advance for any help and information.

I have recently over the last week had my belly balloon up and a very itchy rash mainly on my upper body both of witch are getting worse. Approximately 14 pounds increase in weight during that time with the fluid retention.

I have had one blood test which came back ok but waiting for a scan.

Does this seem similar to anyone else’s experience ?

Please forgive me if it’s a stupid question but my heads all over the place with this.

Hello,

I am sure our forum members will be along to share their experiences.

It is important not to jump to any conclusions, however if your symptoms persist, please seek further medical advice.

I have included a link to our information on Liver Disease Tests which may help.

Thanks for that, Ascites is all I have confirmed at the moment. Not knowing is so frustrating and your right , we shouldn’t jump to a conclusion but not knowing is so frustrating as you feel totally useless.

Would be interested to see if this was the same for other within the group.

🙏
