Well, the smart money says that you better stop drinking immediately and get your liver disease evaluated. Hepatic encephalopathy or HE is a common problem with cirrhosis patients as their liver is no longer able to process what they consume. It messes with your brain. In extreme cases leads to coma and death. That could be what you are feeling but only a doctor will be able to determine that. It is your call, but if your liver is failing and you continue to drink it is a slow waltz with the angel of death.

My advice is stop drinking and see a hepatologist for a real diagnosis, then do what he tells you.

Definitely stop drinking. You need to be seen by a specialist. They will do blood and possibly a scan of your liver to find out how much damage is done. Eat fresh vegetables and fruits and cut down on protein, sugars and no salt (that’s what my doctor told me). I had Cirrhosis stage 5. But today it’s recovering. Good luck to you and hope you feel better soon.

Few more things to cut out is no salt and less sugars. No processed food and no fast foods.

How much protien should we be eating?

[nettl1 in reply to Jkf1]

Depends on your liver damage. My doctor told me 9 grams a day.
