Liver Disease

Hi . i havent been fully diagnosed as still waiting tests but have ha a high alt for about a year the rest of the lfts just about max. i dont drink but am overweight and have done illicit drugs.

i find if i take opiate medication i get heart arrythmias . if i eat fatty food i get like a skin burning feeling plus a fluttering heart and finally i seem to get overly affected by all meds (like they have more affect than they should do) . tired all the time

can anyone give similar experiences so i know its liver causing these issues.

thx

no when i say tired i feel tired getting to the toilet and back. my skin feels a bit likes its burnt under the skin is maybe best i can say . a lot of these things including heart is made worse by opiates /fatty foods and i even noticed chilli and pringles. i assume its liver related as i have a high alt but struggling for help. not getting any responses on here so far. i get a lot of pain and have resorted to buying opiates to relieve it as gp wont help but i feel they make parts of it worse. its hard and be nice to get some replies. i have a hgh alt but rest of lfs are bordering max norm.

anybody get similar?
