- Hello everyone, this is just a bit of info on liver disease and some of the things that can go with it. Also I talk a little about life expectancy when you have liver disease. Also the financial burden is hard when living with this. If you would like to help you can by going to

But not necessarily but I thank everyone who has helped me from the bottom of my heart.
I was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver 1/21/22 from alcoholism at 38. It was the hardest fight of my life for 10 months. I was only given 3 months to live. The disease took over my body and eventually only had weeks because it was so bad. On 10/17/22 I received a phone call from University of Michigan and they had a match for me. They saved my life and I've been sober since 1/21/22.
So happy for you!
Amazing
Hi my name is Frances,I was noticing your comment about a transplant did you have it done ?how are you feeling today !could you please give me some information about liver disease if possible I would appreciate your help,your thoughts about having liver disease!is there any certain symptoms should I be concerned with!
@@CityParanormal173 yes I received my transplant on 10/17/2022. I'm feeling much better, but I do lack energy from to to time. The liver disease was extremely devastating and required lots of treatment to stay alive.
Dont drink and drive your body to the grave- officer friendly 😂
thanks for your video. it sounds like you have decompensated cirrhosis. For those out there that still have compensated cirrhosis, I would like to give them a word of encouragement. I was diagnosed back in 2019 a couple of months before the shutdown. They told me I was on the borderline between compensated and decompensated. And said I had about 3 years to live. I made both habit and lifestyle changes. No drinking (which I don't believe was the primary cause, but was a contributing factor), diet restructuring (on going), supplements and exercise. I also gave up driving. And bike as much as possible, on a good day I can get 10 miles. But other days I can't even get out of bed. I have been hospitalized four times for esophageal varices ruptures. which is actually how they found out about my condition. I still work but take about twice as many days off as I get in sick days. I normally don't speak about this topic but to close friends, so I would like to commend you on your willingness to put yourself out there. Also enjoyed the answer to the question how long do I have? It brought a little respite to an otherwise sobering topic. Keep your head up my friend, ...
Detox in 2018, 3 months to live, hospice. 6 years of no relapse sobriety, great blood work. The Dr. says no need for a transplant yet. Feel great and getting stronger daily. Never give up, It ain't over.
I was dx in 1988...so I have had cirrhosis for 36 yrs...Am now 58 yr old. Planning to do a 100 mile hike this summer. Eat well, sleep, jump on infections or any sign of illness, and lots of exercise. as you said, it doesn't need to be death sentence...good luck!
What stage of Cirrhosis?
I know someone in my family is hardcore massive alcoholic (drunk 24/7) from 14 to 74 and they’re super healthy in amazing shape (better than me) and they look like they’re 50. I’m sure he has massive cirrhosis but not eating McDonald’s and processed trash will save you fast.
I am a Nurse and I have cirrhosis. Medically the longest expected to live once diagnosed is 12 years. You are a unicorn.
The average once diagnosed is 8 to 12 years without a transplant. I am very early stage diagnoses two years ago.
@@ZxAMobileoh yeah, some genetics are better than others. In my family strong livers run BUT strong hearts don't. Many of my family members died from heart attacks but the livers were fine during the autopsy.
I was diagnosed on my birthday, January 1st, 2021. I am doing the best that I can to keep mine from getting worse. I have bloodwork and an mri done every 6 months. The Lord is by my side and helping me every step of the way. Mine is non alcohol cerosiss of the liver. God bless you and thank you for all of the information.
*cirrhosis*
One thing I noticed is how alcohol -centric our society is. I watched a comedy with friends last night and the whole damn movie basically revolved around liquor
Legal accepted drugs like alcohol cigarettes pot caffeine are all dangerous fatal drugs.
thats american society. not everywhere is the same.
That's a load of crap and you know it @@archuk6058
@@archuk6058 It's the case in a LOT of countries. Definitely not an American thing lol
Yes everywhere, adverts, occasions everything is about alcohol, a very serious illness.
Wish u all well ,anyone suffering 😢
I stumbled upon your videos, turmeric, ginger and milk thistle is helpful for liver, I take them everyday
Over use, toxic. Be mindful.
Also lemon and lime juice clean out your liver.
Cirrhosis at 17....with hepatitis...took meds for hepatitis, cured, still livin with Cirrhosis......now 71...went to specialist ...ultra sound on liver 1600 count you have liver failure...sober since 1990 livin with a 1400 count...😅...more good days than bad..hallelujah!...
I was in hospice in 2018. 2024, still sober and feeling great with cirrhosis and really great blood work? Winning, right?
You lost me at sober
Sobriety didn't t happen another 20yrs..sobered up 1990
@@garryanderson598 I was just making a bad joke. It is hard to imagine never drinking again. Even for the taste of some things.
You know I m in the safe place...
Crazy so many young ppl are now getting cirrhosis. Mid 20's to early 40's are starting to sky rocket!
That'll be the standard American diet . But it makes people Rich
I left the standard American diet behind and my body is healing. I have hepatic steatosis and borderline hepatomegaly. Fatty liver of course, only thing to reverse that is diet and lifestyle change. Which I did, went ketogenic and hitting the gym every other day, strength training works wonders for physical and mental health.
I think people are drinking at an earlier age, and drinking more.
@@Theruckingcarnivore74 so true
@@That1GuyLouie yep
My husband had cirrhosis for 15 years got a transplant recently that lasted for three months and then he passed away from something else. Keep fighting everybody prayers
I’m so sorry 😢
I also have liver cirrhosis. Diagnosed in 2019 brother. My Mom had liver failure secondary to diabetes. I was an alcoholic but quit in 2018 before being diagnosed. It sucks but I've been driving on. I also have chronic kidney failure but I've been doing rather good I believe. I feel good at least. I just do my best to stay positive brother. Keep doing the same buddy

Neil this was a very good video! You covered so many of the questions people wonder about when newly diagnosed. My liver Dr told me he wanted to see me live 30 more years without a transplant! I am 58 so you have many more years to go my brother in C. I was diagnosed Nov 2022 and went thru all the hoops in August 2023 to make the transplant list. Nov. 2023 with tears of joy in his eyes my Dr said I was too well and not in need of a transplant now. It’s a rare thing he said so you and I are so Blessed! One thing that I still struggle with is neuropathy in my feet - left foot is worse. But like you, put one foot in front of the other & keep on keeping on. All the best
Anything special you did to become healthy again?
@@religiousandspiritual9374
I upped my protein to 90+ grams a day, got more sun plus increased my physical activity. I’m not a Dr and no medical professional recommend this, but I added Milk thistle supplements as well as glutathione to my vitamin ritual of C,d3 with k2, zinc and calcium Above all I started and ended each day with Gratitude and let go of the things I cannot change. I pray this helps you & May God Bless You
I have to commend your outlook! There’s another guy who has a channel who has cirrhosis. I couldn’t finish watching it. All he did was complain. You have the right attitude. Having had cirrhosis myself - until I got a transplant- I lived everyday as it were my last - no alcohol of course. Finally, be careful of your protein intake. It can cause encephalopathy. Look it up. Also, drink lots of
Water to keep your kidneys going. They’ll take a beating throughout the years. Your immune system is low also… white blood cells are low. Good luck brother.
I love your positive attitude.
This has really helped me as my husband was diagnosed about two years when he started hemorrhaging (varicosities), he was close to death.
So far, no cancer. He never smoked, doesn't drink and was a vegetarian for 15 years. He has recently been having arterial nose bleeds due to the blood thinning, bilirubin kicking butt but no jaundice.... nausea, fatigue, mood swings.... you covered a lot and I think your video is a blessing to others.
I wish we could donate to you, but as you well know and so do we, this diagnosis kills you financially. We are hanging on by a thread. Will keep you in my prayers along with my husband.
Oh...and I was diagnosed with NASH 8 months ago. Doing my best to reverse.
Stay strong brother, I'm praying for you.
Thanks for the videos man, It’s greatly appreciated. I can absolutely relate. My dad passed away when he was 36 years old from a genetic form of liver disease/cirrhosis and unfortunately I was diagnosed with it about a year and a half ago and next month I will be 36 and I am coming up on my 2 year mark.
I have been hospitalized multiple times for variceal bleeding, H.E. And a handful of other complications due to cirrhosis.
It’s a rough process that is for sure, it’s hard to plan anything because the symptoms can hit so fast and be so disorienting and crippling.. it makes every day a struggle and a complication.
It’s tough to plan to do anything with the family, makes it extremely difficult to work every day.. it makes it difficult to plan for tomorrow, which makes it impossible to plan for the future because ultimately we don’t know if we will even have one or if we will get liver transplant or what our health and quality of life will be.
It’s a nightmare
I’ve sat here and lost track of what I’m writing or thinking..
I wish there were better answers and not just “you could live with this for the rest of your life.”
That must be in the book somewhere because those are the same exact words my doctor told me.
I hope the best for you and your family and everyone that is going through the same thing
TBH, I never would have thought you had cirrhosis based on your appearance. You look relatively healthy. Thank you for sharing this information. It may help save lives or quality of lives. I hope only the best for your recovery. Take care.
My liver was severely impaired from my test results. Shockingly bad from 20 years of heavy drinking. I went cold turkey for 138 days and my liver came back completely normal.
Unfortunately I went back to drinking but at least it shows that your liver can totally regenerate if you give it enough time.
So please try!
Can I ask what your results were? I understand that's super personal info but just trying to get a better idea of what you mean.
Hey Neal ..I got my liver January 16th...I was only on the UNOS transplant list for a total of 10 days from being listed to transplant. I sure never thought it would happen that fast but I have AB + blood type which is pretty rare. But I recovered very quickly I spent 1 day in ICU and 4 days in a private room. I was discharged Monday afternoon and going back to the clinic Friday morning to have my labs checked
That’s great! Nice to hear you are doing well
@@Redneckkenobi now we all have to pray that they'll match you asap.
So happy for you. That is so awesome. May God Continue to bless you. 🙏
@@brucebrooks8144 thanks😊 I need to get sicker again first. But hey whatever is meant to be will be 😊
I got home yesterday...it sure feels good to be back home. I have to go back to the clinic on Fridays to have the labs checked to see what medications need to be readjusted and hopefully get the staples out too..my right side is pretty tender yet.
Love your attitude!
Great video Neil. Always informative and uplifting.
I was diagnosed with alcoholic fatty liver disease in 2011, I was 32. Drinking alcoholically, now I've been sober 10 years, my liver healed after 6 months of teetotalling.
Wishing you well, I hope you have healing and good health, I like your videos, you are so informative and brave.
🇦🇺 🌻💙
Thank you! It’s good to hear your positive story
Looking good Neil, thanks for the video. Take care
Good video brother stay strong keep that positive mindset
This is the most informative video on liver disease I've watched! Thanks for sharing this! 💯 You have a great attitude and staying positive is helpful to your well-being.
Thank you, you are a voice and blessing for those who walk the same path, but cannot yet put it into words. Thank you and I hope that you make it through your ordeal, thank you so much. ✨🕊️
Lots of great information on this video. 👏
People, besides drinking alcohol.
Monitor your Sugar intake because High Sugar diet is very similar to drinking alcohol.2nd a high Refined Carbohydrate diet.Limit your carbs and sugar.
3rd,also High Fat diet or more like Saturated Fat diet (eating too much fatty Red Meat;ribs,bacon,ribeye steak,sausages,etc.) and processed deli meats- keep an eye on these foods in not eating too much of it.These items are generally super hard on the Liver that if we consume so much of it that it could kill the Liver.
I need to get a better control of my sugar intake . I quit alcohol over 18 months ago but I somehow developed quite a sweet tooth , especially for ice cream .🤔
@@andrewhazenberg3398
If you have to,trade it for Greek Yogurt that has Zero Fat and very low carbs/sugars.
Also, maybe get the Frozen Yogurt,but for this you will have to check the calories nutrition facts.
Also,trade your regular Ice Cream for Sugar Free and/or Low Fat Ice Cream.
This are just ideas for healthy snacking alternatives.Good Luck
I am going to start doing that . Thanks for that suggestion🤗 @@Eros13adios
Fructose is probably as bad as alcohol for the liver and it's very high in Honey, Fruit and processed foods containing HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup)
I’ve seen many examples of people reversing fatty liver and the occasional anecdote of reversing fibrosis on a purely red meat carnivore diet. Cases that were considered irreversible.
The data is still coming in as that diet gains popularity, but it looks like we may have to pump the brakes on the previous way of thinking regarding fatty red meat.
It may even be the missing answer for slowing cirrhosis.
Another great informative video Neil . I just want to wish you all the best . I hope God gives you a miracle. 👍❤🙏
Thank you for being so truthfull.
Thank you for the encouragement.
Good to hear your positivity despite all you’re going through.
Thank you so very much for making this video! Recently diagnosed with non alcoholic cirrhosis. Still in shock! You did a great job of explaining things my doctors have mentioned but I didn't understand. God bless you and keep you!
Thank You this was very informative i was diagnosed in November 2021. My meld was 9 it is now 18. I have experienced most of what you talked about only fluid in my abdomen. Paracentesis helped and of course the meds. Mine was from fatty liver disease. We are talking about a living donor in the future i hope i can wait for a while. Your so right about exercise, and doing the best you can to help your liver and body. Prayers 🙏 for you and others going through this.
Thanks for your videos still watching from Australia and still trying to improve my liver ( fatty liver disease)
I'm sorry to hear you are going thru this. I have liver issues that run in my mother's side of the family. I turned to alcohol right before the pandemic and then when I was unemployed during the worst of the pandemic. I drank a lot lot. I'm trying to do something about it. I wish you all the best. Cheers my friend!
Thank you for the way you have explained this. I was diagnosed in 2019 . And they sent me on my way. I’m trying to do my best to eat healthy. I appreciate you so much. You explained it so well for me to understand it. I will be following you.
My dad lived from 1969 -2006 with cirrhosis of the liver. But his was from drinking alcohol. He stopped drinking. And lived a long time. He did not pass away from the cirrhosis. Again thank you for all the information.
This was such a great video! I was diagnosed with decompensated cirrhosis on October 2nd 2021 at 39yrs old. I had bad acites, jaundice, and I have varices. I have been hospitalised twice with HE. I haven’t had a drop of alcohol since the day I was diagnosed. My MELD score at the beginning was 21, it is now at 6. My cirrhosis was similar to yours, already predisposed to liver complications (developed in my pregnancies 18yrs ago) and a stage where I was drinking quite heavily for a few years due to some tough situations I didn’t deal with properly.
Sounds very familiar 😊 just got to stay positive and change the way you live. Thanks for sharing this
That docs answer was as accurate as possible without any excessive optimism or pessimism. I can see how annoying it would be, but I respect it.
Thanks for sharing your story
Amazing video. I just went to doctor with my mother in law, found out she has cirrhosis and I want to know more and more about. Thank you.
Thank and God Bless you,,,,I am also dealing with liver cirrhosis Sadly im 78 yrs, and know that due to age they won't do a transplant. They prefer to give to someone younger, as they say you lived a goodlife so there is where I am,,,,trying to stay positive, Its hard but its one day at a time..I'm sure we are glad that posted this video, you don't many who do this,,,,
Great Video. Thank You. Subscribed.
Thanks for these videos, my brother is an alcoholic and does drugs, he’s in denial but he is having hallucinations now and believes some guy is always harassing him and coming into his home, some days he acts normal and when he drinks heavier on certain days he has those visions. I think it’s already affected his brain but he gets mad at anyone who tries to tell him he has a problem
Happy that you quit drinking and hope you live a long life, keep up the positivity 🙏🙏
I came to this video in hopes my comment can help you. I halted my father in laws stage 4 cirrhosis c*. Dandelion root and milk thistle WILL GREATLY help detox and cleanse your liver. That and other vitamins really really helped him. Please look into 🙏
Thanks .....what stage is he now / has his fibroscan score decreased ?
@muthufeb18 unfortunately after getting much better the doctors told him to stop, put him back on their protocols and he was gone within a few weeks. I'm grateful we got that extra time with him just before when he took my advice. After a few days of stopping, Everything came crashing down quickly once he listened to the drs. The rest of the family knew that's what was changing things for the better. I'm hoping it will help save others the extra grief. Sometimes the western way of doing things isn't the best way. Look into all of your options. Instead of helping him they just tried to make him more comfortable. Sometimes you have to use many methods. It's no one size fits all. I wish you all love and prayers
I am living proof of that it sure dose work wonders 11 years with cirrhosis with no problems but the first 3 years was hell they gave me 3 years to live and I am living a Normal life these days. I had stags 4 as well thanks for sharing I am sure it will help someone out. wishing you and your father in law the best.
@@PhoenixEvolution sorry to hear that
I recently was diagnosed with a fatty liver and the doctor told me that I needed to exercise and lose weight. Good luck to you, man.

Thank you. And you can ask anything you would like. And email is neil12020@yahoo.com
can you make a video describing how it feels? how the symptoms feel? like.. from the beginning what signs did you have etc.. and you will be fine prayers to almighty

Praying for a healing for you amen
Please would you pray for me too. Liver disease, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis. X
Hang in there brother
enzymes like SOD and acid stable protease , nattokinase and serrapeptase theres a bunch of good ones to help your liver breakdown aldehydes
I have cysts on the liver, fried food , or if I over eat sugary foods , upsets my liver, I also feel bloated and suffer indigestion, and feel a little sore in the liver area. It’s a watch and see game, I believe it rarely turns into cancer. Needless to say I’ve changed my diet, I hardly ever drink.
My family member was doing okay….got a UTI…went septic…gone. Other infections is what you need to worry about because your liver can’t process the meds needed to save you.
I used to be a super heavy drinker, then got sober for 2 years. Had an ultrasound some months back, and my liver was in very good shape. Not fatty, not enlarged, no scarring. It surprised me at first, I was drinking like a madman before finally getting sober. The way it was explained to me, is that the liver will heal from just about anything- as long as you don't go over a certain threshold of damage, which is different for everyone and impossible to predict. That's why some people can drink a bottle of vodka daily for 30 years and never get cirrhosis, and why someone who only drank a couple beers 3 or 4 times a week gets cirrhosis at 35. It's unfair, but there it is.
If you don't mind me asking what was your alcohol intake like?
@@2Hard4UrGrandma Up to a litre of vodka or whisky, plus as many beers as my stomach could take, at the worst of it. It wasn't like that all the time, of course. Some times I'd drink beer several times a week. But when it got bad, it got bad for a month or two at a time. I usually needed medical help to stop at that point.
@@Peter-vn5jq Dang, glad to hear you're doing better!
My soninlaw passed away 3weeks ago today 36 years old. 7kids left behind and my daughter. It was the most horrible thing 😢I've ever seen in my life. Any human go through. Godbless you sir prayers for you😢
I’m so sorry for your and your daughter’s loss. 😢❤ 36 is no age.
I’ve gone 30 + years with cirrhosis and fatty liver disease caused from hereditary hemochromatosis. Was in total liver failure
What did you do? Was it the medicine that helped you or did you make some changes to your diet?
@@KamranKhan-fr3qu Organic plant based diet, milk thistle tea, no sugar, no refined grains, chemicals or alcohol. Hasn’t been easy but it’s doable. Took control of my medical such as learning what blood tests I needed and making sure Drs did them right and on time. Have had over 100 therapeutic phlebotomies. Good luck!

I've only just been diagnosed with cirrhosis... thank you for this video. I'm pretty low at the moment
Hang in there! It’s a crappy road but at the end you will be so strong! Nothing will stop you!!
I haven't watched the video yet but I just wanted to tell you hello and hope you're doing okay. ❤
I've hadtwo drains in seven yrs they gave me spironolactone 200 but started throwing up so I cut down the dose they want to do a biopsy but I'm u sure peace be upon you ❤
I drink lemon juice first thing been itching in evening had a drain over Xmas they drew 5 liters off my back but I feel fine .im 66yrs I sleep alot ot time but could be due to age I live pretty lonely but enjoy my days no varices no yellowing probably down to1500 calories. Stopped throwing up I expect another few yrs
It depends on if your pancreas is affected , if you have liver cirrhosis with pancreatitis , your time could be relatively short and filled with non stop nausea.
I have cirrhosis 15byears,hep c over 30 years,from a tattoo,i dont drink alcohol,or take drugs can only eat junk,like chocolate 🍫 love it,i have chronic pancreatitis since 2005,with acute pancreatitis 7 times,a gall stine,splenic artery aneurysm,my pancreas is dying,and no Dr sees ne,just treat me like trash here in New Zealand 🇳🇿 no pain relief,for my vack,shoulder and hip,they won't give me pain relief anywhere nor palliative care,i feel they dont care,no dignity or respect,so cant get help,im 61 this year,and its hard on my own,but just keep going i hve to
Why do you say times shortened with cirrhosis and pancreatitis..i have gone past 15 years cirrhosis, longer with pancreas, pancreas is dying but i keep going ok. Thanks 👍
Thank you for this video brother.
You need to take Tudca and Cholene like I did when I was diagnosed with stage 4 cirrhosis , along with clean diet my gastro Dr told me I got in remission. 14 year's ago !!!
Did tudca reverse your cirrhosis
Someone very close to me has decompensated cirrhosis and has gallbladder issues but they are not willing to take the gallbladder out right now due to the dangers of the surgery. Which causes so much pain. And the insurance she has only gives her 1 option of a group of doctors for liver transplantation. The medical care is unrealistic!!! So sad!!!!! And HE IS SUPER SCARY!
It can be difficult. I drive 5 hours for my doctor
I was knocked back twice to take my gallbladder out,they said to dangerous so i suffer pain all the time from thst,they just call me an Addict i dont tale drugs nor drink,its cause i have gep c from a tattoo,and cirrhosis from hep c,so drs ignore me now,oh well such is life
I have hemochromatosis due to a defective gene. What type of metal where you over loaded on? And what genetic mutation is the cause of it. Thanks
May GOD bless you 🥺
You are strong
Milk thistle, tudca clean it out as the liver can regenerate. Make sure no parasitic issues. Clean bile ducts and gallbladder
Just asking is constipation common in your situation just asking because I have extreme complications
Thanks
Thank you 😊
You should look into dry fasting. A 7 day dry fast completely cured my cirrhosis.
You dry fasted for 7 days without eating or drinking “at all?”
@@tamaradungan8016 Yep. I've since done an 11 day dry fast. It needs to be done under medical supervision and there are still risks involved however prolonged dry fasting is pretty much the only thing close to a cure that we have for diseases involving scar tissue like COPD, liver disease, etc. Even then there's no guarantees, it all depends on how severe your liver damage is and how far along it is.
@@jackking2461 That's what the pharmaceutical companies want you to think. SOME of it can be reversed if caught early. People with advanced liver disease won't be able to be helped that much by it.
How can a dry fast heal the scarring in the liver? How bad was your cirrhosis?
nothing cures cirrhosis, stop lying
How much is a liver transplant in India? I would think they have really good doctors. Would you just call a hospital and set up flight arrangements and such? Would spouse be allowed in the room?
I quit 2 summers ago. Went from 1 wine box + a week and a 6 pack. Now nothing. Do I miss it yes, but I'd rather have my wife at home, not separated, and my daughter being able to rely on me to drive her and her friends around 24 7. Than sitting alone buzzed
That only sounds like a few drinks a day. Not much more than the recommended health guidelines.
@danlopez.3592 that's what I said. That's maybe a beer at lunch and 2 glasses of wine throughout the night. 6pm to midnight. 😢
@@raymondlin8728 very healthy lifestyle.
You need to take Arogyavardhini Vati ( main ingredient kuti which increases bile production and removes fatty liver fibrosis) and take Punarnavadi Mandoor (contains punarnava which is a good diuretic and removes ascites)
Maybe take Kalmegh as well it ill will restore liver function.

What does your INR usually stay at?
I have cirrhosis I don't what to believe. They say there are no medicines to help. When at the start They didn't give any help. Now I have cirrhosis and I am very uncomfortable. Holistic who.???? do you believe
Recurrently I was told my liver enzymes are within normal range… I was floored. Not sure what that exactly means? Am I better?
Great video. Have been living with cirrhosis for 5yrs now. Im 67 yrs and for last 2year have been dealing with edema an ascities. Have to be drained bout every 4 wks for fluid build up in the abdomen, i now have a abdominal hernia since all fluid build up. Is there any natural cures available to assist in stopping the fluid build up?
Just limited salt and fluids. There may be others I haven’t heard of
22 reishi mushroom incure 8oz drink all in 15mins
You will have to lover salt and sugar,read the labels,eat healthy green veggies,fruit,light meat...
But most important,ask your hematologist for TIPS procedure,it's non invasive procedure and you abdominal fluid will stop accumulating,my belly button ruptured had intestines trying to pop out,I had 8-10 litres of fluid drained every 2 weeks all of that while Corona was at its height.It was a living hell but doctors did procedure,patched the belly but lost the button so I can claim I am an Alien..I am better now,fell of the wagon last year and was bad.Either live or die,I took first option,,,so I called the taxi went to emergency and admitted to hospital for 5 days,haven't had drop since Hospital but I must admit,I miss beer..I hope you get better...
My dad past away from this they gave him 2 years to live and lasted 4 years and died ,the last two months of his life he declined significantly and died.
Depending on what kind of drugs
My skin is turning yellow and my whole back gets itchy at night. Sometimes, my feet and hand also get itchy. These are definitely signs of Cirrhosis. I did a recent blood test and the test said that my liver and kidney are fine...but I am going back to discuss if my liver is fine, why is my skin turning yellow and I still have itchy body every single night. Wishing for the best. I have been told to start eating a keto diet or lots and lots of veggies and limit meat. Cut sugar and sweets.
My itching stopped when I cut down on sugar. Initially I thought it was pre diabetes but I realise, since scans on my liver, the itching was related to the liver disease.
Are you compensated or decompensated? Also what is your MELD SCORE. Here in New Jersey the transplant team mainly goes by your MELD score. Also some doctors go on sobriety time. Thank you for sharing your story 💙
It’s decompensated and I’m at 17 meld. Have to be over 20 before they will even talk about transplant
My loved one had a meld of 27 and the director of the transplant team stopped evacuation! Due to her only being sober 2 months at that point. Now she is 14 meld. Thank you for your informative content!!! Here in New Jersey it is so crazy! The hospital she is stuck with. The doctors some are judgmental to alcoholism
@@Redneckkenobithank you for sharing your story. You are amazing. Don’t forget that.
@@Redneckkenobi my loved one was at 27 meld her state insurance covered but liver transplant team denied her😡 now she is at 15 as of last month not evaluation still, we are in New Jersey and NJ Medicaid ( her policy only accepts university hospital in Newark NJ) UNFORTUNATELY!!!!! She just had another 3 liters taken out of her stomach via paricentesis. Last week and is being monitored for HC possibly. The spot on the liver is toooo small to biopsy. What state are you in?
@@danaleigh0511 yeah I was in the high 30s at one point. I’m in MO but yeah I get the frustration. Sometimes it’s like they want you to be almost dead before they will do alot. But keep fighting and being strong
My best friends father had hep c . Drank like a fish. I saw that. I never drank alcohol my whole life after watching him die. It was the worst death I've ever witnessed. I was there when he died and he died barfing blood. Horrible
Im sorry to hear about your loss

My niece was just diagnosed with stage 4 non-alcoholic cirrhosis at the age of 34! She has fatty liver disease from obesity and is diabetic. She has 3 children and is a single mom. She has some learning disorders and does not realize just how serious her diagnosis is. She has a Meld score of 7 and is compensated. I'm worried she is not taking this seriously enough despite everything we're telling her.

Start asking around for a liver donor ASAP.
Not speaking about your case at all. However, if you have been diagnosed with fatty liver disease, just please listen to what I did to cure mine. I was told that I had fatty liver, and needed a liver biopsy. I have never drank or taken drugs. Believe me, they asked me many times, and I got a little ticked off that they thought I wasn't telling the truth. Anyway, I said no thanks on the biopsy, and went home to research fatty liver, and I learned that it is mostly due to your diet, and metabolism problems!! I went on a low carb/keto eating plan. No sugar or grains, however the food is delicious! I don't count calories, I have a lot of freedom, am never hungry, and eat yummy low carb desserts and fantastic food! I lost weight, got off all meds, including those for high blood pressure and diabetes. I think better and sleep better. I have no more tiredness or joint pain. A few months later, testing showed that my fatty liver problems were GONE!!! Please check this out for yourself!! Dr. Ken Berry and other low carb/keto/carnivore doctors on UA-cam have videos about the subject. Good luck to you, and thank you for sharing your story. You never know who you will help with this. God Bless!
Yes diet is huge, and required once fatty liver turns to cirrhosis. Because the liver stops producing proteins so high protein diet is key especially at that point. Avoiding take out is big too
Be more positive about transplants. My friends’ husband received a new liver in less than 9 months. He did great, even with diabetes. They had no clue what happened to his liver, the guess is the solvents at work.
I. Going to disagree with you because I
have stage 4 liver cirrhosis. I’m probably in the best shape of my life. I have varices. My diet is saving my life.
Agreed that diet is key. But I’m talking averages. There’s no way of knowing when something may change. I’m not talking about one person. Many people have it way worse than you and I.
@@Redneckkenobi true. You are right. I’m all over the place. It is scary having a liver that isn’t functioning at full capacity. Your body does weird things.

Can the portal vein be unplugged?
No. It’s plugged by the deterioration of the organ itself. Stick a hose into a sponge, the water is gonna come out the other side of the sponge.
Then stick a hose in a sponge that is full of dried glue. The water is not going to pass out the sponge, it’s gonna back up and spray everywhere.
There are surgical techniques to help with varices, and sometimes to alter flow of the portal vein, but it’s not optimal. Transplant is the most desirable method of resolving it.
