I'm stage one compensated. I get extreme fatigue, some pain in liver area, and also pain at times in spleen. Mine is from fatty liver disease.also some itching of back, feet, hands
Very informative Neil, be blessed
Had ultra sound about 8 years ago said fatty liver ..doctor never mention it. Had no idea how serious it was. Doctors suck! Thought I had kidney stone hospital done ct . No stone .Got home paper said chronic liver disease!!! Never drank , never meds unless a antibiotic when needed ..not even a asprin. Was over weight but my sisters are a lot bigger than me...They don't have chrosis! Go figure.
I think it's pretty sad that all this is happening even though it is not related to drinking, yet we still have cirrhosis, a death sentence non the less. Also to get so sick, in and out of hospital until death...
@@Rebecca-bb6od hopefully we can keep it from getting worse until they make s cure 🙏
Well said 😊
Hang in there my fellow liver warrior
@@Rebecca-bb6odhang in there! I’m here if you need someone who has been going through it. My email is available to anyone who wants it 😊
❤ pray for something to help for all of us. Hoping my tai chi and qi gong helps...any exercise is good and few arm weights squats .
Excessive cough in throat..nrvous and weak..light headedness..loosing balance
Neal, you're like the 3rd man with a liver podcast, also I've seen one woman with a liver podcast. I has become a real popular podcast, never see them on kidney failure?
My husband died in August from cirrhosis. It’s an ugly horrible disease. God bless all who suffer.
I’m sorry for your loss 😥 and it’s not a pretty disease for sure. I hope that people see where our diets are leading us and we can all make a change. Take care and my heart goes out to you
My precious husband lost his battle Feb 25 2024. I wish you well Neil
I’m so sorry for your loss 😥
Difficulty swallowing
I think my iron does low .Pull down lower eye lid ..if its not red ...your iron is low.My cuson is in liver failure from from heritary too much iron ! Blood work the other day to check more detailed liver stuff (thinking INR) AND iron levels. Another ultra sound of course.
i have had a fatty liver for about 10 years now. I have just passed 1000 days without any alcohol. I use a lot of supplements to help with liver health and restoration, like NAC; N-Acetyl-Cystenine, Milk Thisitle, zinc, gluttathione, along with other supplements like multi vitimans, omega threes, iodoral, liposomal which is a great water based vitimin C. I dont know if any of these will help you, but NAC is definately worth taking for your situation. And of course diet is very important. May the Lord bless you and keep you.
Yay ! Did you have chrosis?
Once you get to cirrhosis stage you have to be very careful on even taking supplements. All your trying to do at cirrhosis stage is basically keep yourself as healthy as you can in hopes of making it to the transplant.
@@valerielock2374 i did not get to the point of cirrhosis. The doctor said only inflamation of the liver. But that was enough to scare me into not drinking alcohol.
@@Coffeechat1979 i agree. Natural Path doctors are very good, but usually dont take insurance. My wife and I both used them years ago and they helped us with our thyroid medications and healthy diets. In the Houston area Dr. Steven Hotze was our natural path. NAC is supposed to be very good for the liver, but always check with your Primary doctor.
Thanks for your comment 😊 I don’t take any “natural” supplements and the reason for that is when the liver becomes cirrhotic it doesn’t process things the same way. And some of those can cause more problems because it doesn’t process through the liver. I’m not completely against them just my choice is to not use them
look up Milk Thistle, its brilliant for liver repair
I take it everyday but I don’t think it’ll be a miracle pill
how does muscle loss feel like? like stiff muscles seem loose and full of skin?
Face is sunk in . Look old see bones
Doing simple things may make your muscles tired. But for me you could see it. I was a mechanic and could lift a lot. Then I didn’t notice it till all the muscles were gone. It can happen slowly. If you are worried I would recommend seeing your doc
Were you sick before you got cirrhosis . Because I was and I thought it was other things wrong with me.
Hello hope all is well can I reverse fatty liver f1?
Fatty liver with a change of diet and in most cases lifestyle change (exercise) it can be reversed. See your doctor though for your situation
can cirrosiss always show up on the ultrasound ?
Yes if cirrhotic it will show under imaging. Generally these days if they do a fibro scan or biopsy it’s to see how far because there may be some hope. Generally is what I found and told. You would see a GI doctor first to determine that
It’s a lonely disease for sure. I hope a medication comes out but I don’t think so. The liver transplant itself is no cake walk. The myth you go on and live a healthy normal life is not so.
Yes it's lonely. I live by myself. Still have to do yard work . Anything that needs fixed that I can do.
@@valerielock2374hi Valerie, my name is rebecca, I too have stage one compensated liver chirosis from fatty liver. I'm 64, alone, I feel depressed and at sometimes I feel angry about this disease. I'm sure people with incurable diseases, ect... we're all at risk of becoming deathly sick, sadly children too get deadly diseases. I live in VT. Just needed to talk about having this disease and being alone. Prayers to you Valerie...
feel ya. Plus I don’t know anyone else that’s going through it. Doctors told my family to send me to hospice when I was diagnosed with a meld score of 18! I have Depression that I might not live to see my kid graduate high school is almost too much to bear. Goodluck to everyone because the transplant as described is just terrifying .
My husband never drank, but he consumes tons and ton of soda. He thinks because it says sugar free its fine. He has liver fibrosis. Go figure.
It doesn’t have to be from drinking. Lots of things cause it. Genetics is a big one. As far as soda having anything to do with it I couldn’t tell ya. But to much of anything isn’t good
