Hello, approximately two years ago I was submitted to hospital with Jaundice after a binge drinking session. I was given an Ultrasound, and told that my results were “clear” and that my liver was normal sized and regular in outline. I was released the next day and given a prescription of Thymine . I have never been a daily drinker, however, have been a steady drinker for almost thirty years. On release from hospital, I continued (foolishly) to drink as normal, as I believed that my liver was healthy. A couple of days ago I noticed some slight swelling in my abdomen. I am able to suck in my protruding belly, however, I still fear that this could be Ascites. Is it common for the disease to progress so quickly?
Thanks
