Liver pain - how long?
Hi Everyone I'm a 48 year old male who was a heavy drinker from the age of around 26 to 45 when it came to a head and I stopped.

Variceal bleed
Last week wasn't fun. I had recently read the book by The Reverend Richard Coles "The Madness of Grief"- most unwise and I don't recommend it. His husband died from chronic alcoholism and a bleed. On Wednesday I started throwing up a lot of blood. Was on my own, terrified and convinced I was dying, called

Ultrasound Result after Elevated ALP
I got my US result this morning and it states that Liver is slightly echogenic possibly due to fatty infiltration. My family doctor thinks it is a fatty liver but I should get a second opinion from specialist. I have scheduled an appointment with gastro on August 24th which is the earliest they have.

Liver tests ok, still unwell. Anxious about cirrhosis being missed.
Liver tests good except low phosphate. Day 6 alcohol free, still nauseous and unwell. Wondering I’d I can have cirrhosis and still good liver results?

Pruritus
10 days of having a itchy back. Is it possible that this is a symptom of alcohol liver disease? I do not have any other symptoms at all. Can pruritus be the first presenting symptom of liver disease?

I decided to quit
I have decided today to quit drinking . I am terrified even after normal labs and a normal ultrasound I think I did damage. If a liver shows normal size and no focal lesions I’m assuming that’s good but I think they may have missed something. How can I not have fatty liver??!! I read a story today about
