US wording for cirrhosis
Dear all: I have a question to people who have had their US done and were diagnosed with cirrhosis. I am confused as mine says - mild-to-moderate hepatomegaly, echogenicity is wnl, no significant steatosis, mild surface nodularity in keeping with chronic liver disease. One doctor ruled out cirrhosis,

PVC’s and Bigeminy
So I stopped my bisopropol and my breathing issues have really subsided I feel so relieved! I was told to take it as a pill in the pocket but find whenever I’m having a bad day of bigeminy runs or single pvcs they come on even more regularly if I take a bisopropol - does anyone else experience this?

Cirrhosis and dealing with salt & sugar cravings
Hello, I have (3 mths ago) been officially confirmed by fibroscan & ultrasound with F4 Cirrhosis. Unknown to me, or not taking liver disease seriously, I have had pretty bad liver problems for at least 6 years. To be honest, I am still trying to get my mind around it. A few months ago, I was quite

Alt/AST ratio...
I still don’t know what this means exactly but out of curiosity I’ve done mine. I have alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver and my readings at my last blood test were... ALT 45 AST 34 Ratio 0.75 All within normal range(apparently).

Inr/pt
Got a question because cannot get straight answers. Just say someone did have cirrhosis and was having easy bleeding and bruising your platelets would be low right? And your inr would be abnormal right? So with that being said if your platelets are normal your inr will be normal also meaning cirrhosis

Advice on weight loss with cirrhosis
Does anyone have any advice for losing weight with cirrhosis? My brother has been sober for 2 years now after being decompensated. All his levels are good and his liver has regenerated to a level. He has real trouble sleeping and has a carb snack before bed to get him through the night as advised by

Decompensated cirrhosis and kidney failure
Mom (age 72) was diagnosed with decompensated cirrhosis with refractory ascites and HE. Soon after creatinine jumped to 7 and her kidney failed. Afterwards, she was on CAPD + rosavel, rifagut & weekly albumin. Also salt intake. Survived 28 months and left us due to heart attack and infection. Doctor

Gastropathy
When I posted does this point to cirrhosis. I had on there what my doctor back then 2009 found on my endoscopy esophagus normal. It shows chronic superficial gastritis with changes suggestive of reactive gastropathy. Does that mean portal hypertension? I read portal hypertension causes portal hypertension

PVCs more during night and rest than during day?
Why am I mostly fine in the day but they crop up at night or at rest, sitting down etc.? Is there a particular posture I should adopt at night in bed?

Recovering from COVID
Both my husband and I contracted COVID after nearly 2 years of being really, really careful and no arrythmias. Inevitably it put me into AF and PVC’s - on my 3rd bout this morning. The first 2 only lasted about 3-6 hours but were very symptomatic with near syncope if I try an upright position. The

Ventricular tachycardia
I had an ablation 5 weeks ago and since then I’ve been having PVCs which I never had before the ablation . The other night I was woken up and my HR 100/102 It lasted for a couple of minutes. I’ve looked up ventricular tachycardia and I’m wondering if that’s what I had . It can be caused by scaring of
