From what I've been told by medical professions, they either make my liver disease seem very serious or no big deal. Anyone else?
My GP incorrectly diagnosed me with cirrhosis. I went to see a liver specialist who told me I had non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, not cirrhosis. I'm angry that I was incorrectly diagnosed, but I'm glad it's not the former. I have lots of mixed feelings. I know I need to lose weight (currently over

Association Between Anxiety and Depression and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
As some of you know, I often like to share information about liver disease. I have found that the more I learn and understand, the easier it is to accept and deal with certain situations if I happen to understand what is causing them. For example, if a person was suffering from depression, knowing the

cirrhosis and edema / ascites
My partner diagnosed 22.12.21 with alcoholic cirrhosis stopped drinking on that date. Since then has been having 3 weekly drains and wasn't able to have diuretics due to low sodium. Was hospitalised last Friday due to extreme edema in feet, legs and scrotum. Has been on IV diuretics as sodium now OK

Enlarged liver
Hi I have been told I have a mildly enlarged liver and fatty liver. The ultrasound was private and wasn't the best at relaying information. I knew I had a fatty liver but the enlarged bit has got me really worried. I don't know what it means. I've googled it but had to stop because it was taking me down

Delusions/Hallucinarions
I became very sick 5 years ago with all the symptoms of PA but was undiagnosed. I got to the point where I started having delusions of parasitosis and hallucinations. Has anyone else experienced delusions or halluconations? I'm afraid my brain may have been permanently damaged?

Waiting for blood and ultrasound results, suspected cirrhosis and portal hypertension
Had bloods taken February and Ultrasound March and am awaiting results. I gave up alcohol in February which I haven't found too difficult. The sonographer told me quite a bit, apparently pancreas, kidneys, spleen and gall bladder seem to be okay. There is some scarring on my liver but he said he'd seen

Husband in intensive care
I only joined this site about a month ago. My husband was gradually becoming unwell over a period of months last year. Trying to seek help from GP was very frustrating and also not being seen physically due to restrictions, anyway this resulted in him being admitted to hospital in late November as bloods
