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.

New 'cirrhosee' with reading of 75 on Richter scale! H E L P
I would welcome responses from those who have similar condition, but who can enlighten me of the pitfalls that lie ahead and of good news stories of
liver
regeneration or
transplant
options after a 'top' score of 75. What about 'live' donors too?

ARTIFICIAL LIVER
Good news , maybe we don’t have to wait for a
liver
transplant
after all. I didn’t realise that machines existed that can carry out the function of the liver, at this stage they are external like kidney dialysis. Would think you have to hooked up permanently as the liver is always working.

Transplant Question
I’ve been wondering for awhile if kidney transplants are given once a person is past a certain age? I’m in the U.S. and I have a cousin who had severe liver disease. She was 75 & the state she lived in didn’t perform liver transplants on anyone over 68. I checked with my state, & liver transplants

Husband’s first Docetaxel, day 4 and struggling
He is on immune suppressants due to a prior
liver
transplant
. He was given Neulasta for the day after Docetaxel(D). His biggest struggle right now is sleeplessness due to discomfort from body aches. This is day 4 after D.

Liver issues and leg pain?
Fairly random question but while I wait for a drs appointment I thought I'd ask....I am awaiting a
liver
transplant
for PSC and I'm getting those dulcit aches in my side that usually indicate imminent cholangitis, but!

Hi Everyone, I am a 42 year old man and I had a kidney transplant 1 year ago.
Hi, as stated above I had a kidney transplant last year. It has been very successful. Having said that I do have some anxiety because I have been drinking quite a lot of black tea this past couple of months. Stopped drinking it early part of the week. I am having irregular heart beats and some dizzy

working out / personal trainer
I'm 14 and half months post kidney transplant and my new kidney is in the right lower quadrant. I am going to start working out with a personal trainer. I wondered if anyone else has had work with a trainer and are there exercises to stay away from during this time? I was thinking like "crunches"

Treatment update-is SBRT missing the lesions ?
PET scan 8/21 following PSA 54.5 showed numerous bone lesions. Zytiga, prednisone, Eligard knocked PSA to <.064 until 1/23 PET showed new small lesion in left hip. Radiation 35 Gray 5/5 completed 3/15/23 with PSA drop then bounce from 0.24 to 5.9 triggered another PET on 9/6/23 which showed a new metastasis

Treatment Decision
I am hoping for some guidance for what to do next for my father. My father is in his early 70s, Gleason 8, PSMA and MRI last year showed no spread, but PSA was rapidly raising. He had an organ transplant years ago, and a small stroke, takes anti seizure medications, and has a walking disability due
