weight gain

[Allotmentlotty]

Hya. At the moment my liver is stable. I was diagnosed 2024 with cirrhosis.

put on Carvedilol for oesophageal varices. Since May of last year. I have put on over a stone in weight. My diet is very healthy and I’m active every day. Dog walking my very huge giant breed dog. I can walk 7000 steps plus more. Also I have 2 large allotment plots where we grow fruit and vegetables.

Does anyone else have a weight problem if on these tablets?

many thanks
