I have now been diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver gallstone and on Wednesday have been told I've polpis been they can't do anything my pain is through the roof and haven't been offered anything stronger I feel as if I'm just being left to my own devices I also have bipolar disorder which is through the roof and also left to myself with this

Sorry to hear your care has been so rubbish. If you have cirrhosis then you should now be under the care of a hospital consultant, likewise for your gallstone issues. You should be given 6 monthly ultrasound and 6 monthly bloods as per the NICE guidelines and monitored properly. Not sure what you mean by polpis (typing error perhaps).

Do you have any one who can help you push for the appropriate level of care? Are you under mental health for your bi-polar as they may be able to help because the added anxiety of your physical health condition isn't going to help your bi-polar any.

Hi, I’m sorry to hear that you are in pain and feel abandoned. I have 2 suggestions: 1) talk to your GO about what has happened and see if they can support you. 2) talk to PALS (patient advice and liaison service) at your hospital and ask them for help. You shouldn’t be dealing with this on your own
