my mum - end stage liver failure
The hospital told me on Friday that this is part of end stage
liver
failure
, but we weren’t aware she had that. They apologised but said a doctor needs to discuss it further. Since then there hasn’t been a doctor available over the weekend to talk to us and we are left in limbo and very worried.

Help Please
All I see from researching is
liver
and kidney
failure
as possibilities. I never had any problems until I was on steroids for such a long time. I put on over 2 stone last year in the space of 2-3 months due to high-dose steroids. I am at a complete and utter lost.

Echocardiogram
I had an echocardiogram last October and have had another one recently. I got a letter from my cardiologist with a copy of the results saying it was ok but he gave virtually no information about the progression of my heart failure and permanent afib. I took a photo of both echo results and uploaded them
