Doc says: "Cirrhosis? Yes. Food restrictions? No." So confused. Advice?
I have cirrhosis. Surgeon saw it in CT scan & really saw it during hernia surgery so no doubt about it. But Liver function normal at this point say tests. I want to find out the underlying cause so it can be addressed. I do not want to inadvertently cause any more damage to my liver with inattentive

Child-Pugh Score for Cirrhosis Mortality
Under the scoring rate for ascites..Absent Slight Moderate Basically I was extremely bad when diagnosed but now absent but only via sodium and fluid restrictions and diuretics. Which would you count as your score?

Ultrasound
I got my ultrasound report back and was told I had fatty liver, on the report it says the liver is normal in size and diffusely echogenic. Anyone knows what this means when I googled it it mentions cirrhosis

Blood transfusion 10 days after liver transplant
My friend had her
liver
transplant
10 days ago and today has been sent for a blood transfusion and is then going to ICU as they are concerned about her numbers. I naively wasn't prepared for all the post transplant complications. She has a lot of bruising and has been very agitated.

Monitoring Hepatic Steatosis
I’ve recently had an MRI scan of the small bowel and an MRI scan of the pancreas, liver and gallbladder as part of ongoing investigations into gut problems. One of the observations was that I have hepatic steatosis and a fatty pancreas with a possibility of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) -

Hi Everyone, A year ago I was diagnosed the NAFLD Cirrhosis to summarise Child Scale A, Meld 7 and well compensated. I was having an endoscopy for something else. Initially was shocked, panicked and experienced a myriad of emotions. I’ve just had a review after a year my first scan, and liver function

Meal sizes
I'm sticking to what I should n shouldn't eat and the same with fluid.My question is, is it safe to each larger meals ( again with the correct nutritional details ), it is just the larger the portion the more bloated I feel. This is only temporary and if I didn't have cirrhosis i would probably just

NON CIRRHOTIC LIVER DISEASE
Hi all, I am trying to learn about non cirrhotic liver disease, unlike the more common NAFLD and alcohol related liver issues, there isn’t a lot of decent information to be found. As in my case LFTs always come back normal with ALT/AST only slightly raised, fibroscan stiffness low 3.5 kpa. But continue

Bile leak
Good morning, what I'm going to talk about is rather yuk but, can I ask the group if anyone has had q problem with bile leaks. I felt my stomach burn it started under my ribcage on the upper right. I felt it run down through my stomach and my intestinal track and without it sounding horrible, it ended
