Looking after a 17 month old after c section
I've got a planned c section next month and will also have a 17 month old LB to look after. How did you look after an older sibling that doesn't understand you're unable to lift them/play with them after the section? I'm worried he'll feel pushed out as it is. How did you manage when OH went back to

varices
I would like to thank all the people who replied the variety of experiences made me do more research and I found that Carvedilol and omeprazole are just as effective as banding, however I will ask for a further Gastroscopy in a year or two. As I’ve had a serious bleed before probably over reacted. Once

Worried about blood tests
Hi, I have had mildly elevated liver enzymes since 2019. I am female, 45, BMI 24.6 and I suffer from fibroids that cause me to have extremely heavy periods and I am often anaemic. I don’t drink or do drugs. High LFTs were first picked up during routine blood tests and my doctor said not to worry about

Anyone else have weird symptoms from cirrhosis?
Recently diagnosed with F3 fibrosis/cirrhosis. I do not yet have ascites, jaundice or esophageal bleeding, which I understand are the signs of decompensated liver. I do have extreme fatigue and weakness and dull pains in upper abdomen. I also have other weird pains everywhere. Pain in lower back, feet

Ibrutinib and Hepatitis B

The doctor is not very transparent about the risks and we’re freaking out. Does anyone have experience and suggestions with this? Also what

A coarse liver?
I had an ultrasound liver scan - as my liver was damaged by taking azaphoprine that treated my ulcerative colitis. After liver biopsy They had diagnosed liver cirrhosis 4 months ago, but now ‘a coarse liver in keeping with chronic liver disease’ What does this mean? Do I still have liver cirrhosis

Advice for treatment of liver metastases.
Hi Ladies I finished chemo in February for second recurrence. Unfortunately my CA125 was rising, was 9 the 27 now 55 and it's a good indicator for me that something is happening. Had a CT and it shows one tumor 2.4cms in my liver. All clear otherwise. Lots of emotions. Disappointed but relieved it's

Dad has stage 4 cirrhosis
Hi everyone, I have recently found out my dad has stage 4 liver cirrhosis. He isn't eligle for a liver transplant the doctors said he wouldn't be a candidate ( I think this may be because he has COPD) . I'm just so heart broken and so is my Dad. I'm trying to understand what this means for him though.Can

Any alcohol?
hi all I’ve been diagnosed with NAFLD. I had a fibroscan which showed a reading of 20 so possible borderline cirrhosis. However my gastro consultant said he didnt feel this was entirely accurate and it’s maybe not progressed that far yet, please god. My question is, and I think I know the answer
