Holiday insurance companies.....
Hi there, I'm in ireland here. I've compensated cirrhosis for the last four years. I've been very lucky that, I've very few symptoms, as hard going they are. But I cannot find travel insurance anywhere. Not even a high cost plan. Any UK companies anyone can recommend. We are just doing a 1.5 hr flight

How is Chronic hepatic encephalopathy diagnosed?
My dad is in hospital with confusion (he's slowly gaining lucidness), where he is being treated for a UTI, and they have told him he has chronic hepatic encephalopathy, and this level of confusion is not reversible. I'm just wondering how this gets diagnosed? He was in hospital over the new year, and
