Finally the day arrived and he was great. He told us the the Child’s Pugh score was 10 and I can’t remember the name for,the other score but he said to be considered for Liver Transplant the score is 49 and my husband’s score was 51. He is putting him on to Rifaximin and wants him to reduce the amount

FutureLearn Liver Courses and Mental Health
Some of you will know of the two online liver courses that were run by FutureLearn. These were "Liver Disease: Looking after Your Liver" and "Liver Transplant". I, like so many have done both these courses, scoring 91% and 98% which surprised me at the time. I was therefore disappointed to learn

Is it worth to get transplanted?
I have been following the forum in this site for a while. However, everytime I read many of the threads, I end up wondering if it is worth going through it. Currently, I am relatively healthy, although my creatinine is 3.6, my BUM is 49, and my GFR is 13. I have been in the list for almost a year. I
