Hi all, my hubby has got end stage liver disease as a result of Haemochromatosis and having drank alcohol not knowing he had this has accelerated the damage.
He’s currently in hospital he’s having to have his ascites drained regularly and his consultant has started doing the work up to refer him to a transplant centre.
So currently due to his pancreas being effected too he has lost a lot of weight and it has impacted his mobility and is currently not able to climb the stage. The doctor has said my hubby needs to build up his strength and mobility, he said as a rule of thumb the transplant centres normally require a fitness level where you can complete two sets of stairs to be able to have a transplant.
Did anyone else find this?
As it feels like he will never manage that and he’s only 34 bless him.
