[Rookery31]

Hi in June 2019 whilst on holiday in Italy my tummy swelled up a n d I felt unwell on return to England was taken to hospital when my tummy was drained and I was diagnosed with liver cirrhosisI have never been a big drinker so was very shocked since then I don't have a drink and very careful with salt content

Since then I have been on medication and been very well

2days ago my tummy has started swelling again cannot understand this and feeling very worried x

Hi Rookery-- you should contact your doctor asap, maybe even go to A&E. Ascites can keep recurring, I think. Best wishes.
