I Feel like I should be grateful to be on the waiting list for a new liver. But I really don’t feel grateful to towards the kind doctors.
I hate the way I feel about the thought of a new
liver
transplant
. I have made it know to doctors about my feeling towards a new
liver
transplant
. I feel great at the moment and I only on one type of tablet a day. For my
liver
condition.

Extreme fatigue. Any solution?
This is wiping me out. Honestly. It tends to start at about 5 pm and lasts for about 2/3 hours. I used to take Whey protein to counter it but this appears to not hit the spot. I’m utterly exhausted when this phenomenon strikes and am wondering if anyone has any ideas? I take B1 daily (Superior Source

B12 stored in liver ?
Hi I'm getting a little confused and trying to understand what is actually measured with blood tests... Does a serum Total B12 reflect what is or isn't stored in the liver at the time of the test or just what is circulating ? Does an Active B12 test measure the store differently, is the store in

Coronary calcium channel score
Is statin prescribing linked to Coronary Calcium score? In late 60's my recent Angiogram was fine but had a CCS score of 25. From what I've read, Statins do not eliminate existing plaque, but stop it getting worse. Always ate healthy, since a child being faddy, cut off every bit fat from meat, wouldn'teat

varices grade 2
My consultant physician did a surveillance Gastroscopy which showed 2 varices grade 2, as I was taking Carvedilol twice daily he has decided no further action is required. Having had a burst varice in the past which put me in hospital for a week. I am confused to why he’s decided not to band them surely
