Having good health is TRULY a blessing. Too many people take it for granted.
Absolutely!!
Perfect
I think it's okay to take certain things for granted. Good health included because that should be the standard
Ur right
So true, Mama!
My dad had to perform this procedure 2 times, I felt sorry for him, it was not easy. After he got a liver transplant, but he didn’t make it! RIP dad, you were such a warrior.
so sorry for your loss
Godbless
I would be toxic about you spelling liver wrong but knowing your dad passed away due to it, I can only send you my prayers.
@@manwithstds7503 proceeds to misspell but lmfao
I'm sorry to hear this, be gentle with yourself xxx
I was on a liver transplant list for over 3 years before it happened. I was drained 2 times a week taking any where from 10 to 14 liters of fluid. I wore suspenders to keep my pants/skirts from dropping on drainage day. Started at women's size 18/20 and ended up at a 14 after draining. Transplant was done on 12/24/25/ 2019. My Christmas miracle.
Congratulations on the successful outcome. And right before all that pandemic nightmare thank goodness.
For how long u got ascities
Hope you’re doing well now. Health is something taken for granted way too often.
Me too. Had my transplant 3 years ago, so lucky to be alive, thankfully everyday for the doner and family
Awesome 🎉
I've read so many comments here where some of you have had or are waiting for a liver transplant. I am praying for y'all. You're so brave and are truly warriors! May God Bless Yall, friends. 🙏✝️💯
Praying for you
Had no idea I had this condition until I couldn't breath one day at work. My work mates put me in an ambulance and made me go to the hospital. Over the next three days they drained almost 40 liters of fluid off my body. I suffered with this condition almost two years where in my body was eating all my muscle mass. I was put on the transplant list for a liver. I was lucky to get a liver and it took almost 6 months to get back to the point where I could go back to work. I was so weak that I would have to pull my self up the stairs. It was not fun. I went through about 20 paracentesis procedures before my transplant at the end it was every week with at least 16 liters each time. I am three years post op for the transplant and 65 years old and survived covid without hospitalization. I'm one of the lucky ones.
Mine was caused by toxic water from Camp Lejeune North Carolina, Camp Pendleton California and Camp Schwab on Okinawa Marine corps Bases. As well as all the chemical solvents I was exposed to in the navy.
Wow! I’m happy for you!
I hope that you received a good settlement!
Dealing with the military and government, so not a snowball chance in hell
@@davidsmith1225 I'd rather drink the water in Mexico than camp lejeune.
Hats off to the patient who allowed this to be shown to educate others. May health follow him!
Lovely message D Smith

Seems like he didn’t even know. “We are filming for educational purposes” “oh..okay”.
Once your liver is that jacked up, you are a gonner. Probably already dead at this point.
Ascites usually indicate a grave danger to a patient’s life. This is so personal to me as my father had similar buildup of fluid in the abdomen before being diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer which had spread to the peritoneum. He left us for the heavens just 2 months after the diagnosis. There is not a single day which goes by that I don’t miss him. He was just 56. RIP Papa! It is not fair to anyone to loose their father at such an early age😢
Yes 😢😢 my father too 😢😢
Stop whining
My grandma too experienced this due to stomach cancer and it's sad that Kenyan doctors neglected her and she succumbed.There is no single day during her last two months that I didn't cry on her behalf she couldn't even eat😢
Entendo a sua dor! Passei com o meu irmão isso! Deus a conforte sempre! 🙏

He must have been in an insane amount of discomfort. Thank you for your calmness during a lengthy and intense procedure.
I've had 13 pulled one time now it's 3-5 weekly. I can't even imagine. When I was at my worst I could barely breath and forget eating. Once they pull enough you feel instant relief. I have a love/hate relationship with para days.
@@kacieallen5833 I hope you are feeling better these days! That is a lot of fluid buildup. I'm sure that you must have been in a great amount of pain. ❤️
Treatment of cirrhosis of the liver and ascites. Todka or Orso supplement with protein albumin, vitamins D320000+ K2100, Magnesium Street 400, Vitamin C Complex, Vitamin B Complex, methylene cobalamin, vitamin E, tocotrienol, psyllium, Omega 3, and zinc. Better yet, you analyze vitamins and minerals, and in a month the ascites heals. You continue to take the supplement every three months, provided you prevent any. A doctor laughs at you and withdraws abdominal fluids. They kill you like they killed my mother six months ago, and before that, my only aunt is younger than my mother. May God take revenge on them and keep watch over them and their families. It is necessary to prevent the withdrawal of abdominal fluids.

My little sister died from pancreatic cancer in 2014. She was 44 years old. About two months before she passed she had to have paracentesis for ascites. In my research, I saw on one website that the formation of ascites is one of the indicators of getting close to the end. For her, it was true. RIP Carmen, I miss you every single day. 😢

My deepest condolences. I lost my little brother when he was 31. It is so painful to lose a sibling. I know it's been 9 years for you but I know it likely still really hurts.
6 1/2 yrs ago I got diagnosed with cirrhosis in icu an had this procedure done. I can proudly say healthy happy and still sober today🙏🏼 water , water , water an a healthy diet thank ya Jesus for another day!! 💪🏼🤙🏼🙏🏼
May I ask did you get a transplant or was it a change in diet and or supplements? Thank you.
Yep I have to pack in the drinking ... can feel a tiny amount of ascites in the right flank. Booze was fun but also miserable. Choosing a normal life over a rapid horrid death is far preferable.
I gained 80 pounds of water weight when I was in acute liver failure! Random virus attacked my old liver, I was put at the top of the list due to how sick I was. 2 days of being on the list I received my new liver! Greatfull to be here today! ❤ prayers for this man and his body!
Happy to hear about that Meghan
Thank GOD you're so much better🥰🥰🥰
Congrats girl ! What a chance ! I hope that you'll be healthy now and that you won't have anymore issues like this. you seem so young ! It's a blessing.
Wow 🙌🏾
My prayers are with you that you stay healthy and this liver lasts you for quite a long time
I can sooo relate to this video. 22 years ago, a simple gall bladder removal resulted in the dr cutting my hepatic duct, without realizing it. Went home that day. About two weeks later I looked like the gentleman in your video. I couldn’t walk, I was in so much pain. They drained 14 liters from my abdomen. I was so sick…I was in icu for 3 months because they didn’t know how to fix me. There was only 1mm of hepatic duct left to work with. Well, six doctors from 3 separate hospitals came up with a plan, Thank God, because I am here today!
You're BLESSED.
Omg that's horrifying! I'm glad you were okay and they were able to fix it!!!
That’s insane! I had my gallbladder removed and it was the easiest surgery I’ve experienced! Can’t believe the doctor did that to you! So glad you are ok today!
K
hope you're also rich off that lawsuit
So appreciate this man’s kindness so others can watch this video and learn! I hope is feeling much better.
I’ve just watched this with great interest. The Doctor’s commentary was excellent.
The fast forward filming was amazing! Thanks to the patient allowing this procedure to be filmed. Looked so easy, wish you a good recovery, Sir.
It Just about made me want to return back to my nursing career, on the surgical wards. From Auckland, New Zealand 🦋
That man must have felt like he was about to burst. Bless him.
It actually feels like you're drowning. I just had a liver transplant and I had to undergo this procedure once a week for about a year until my new liver came. It is absolute hell

I had this procedure done many times before my heart transplant 10 years ago. The most I had extracted was 12.3 liters and lost nearly 25 pounds. I had to have it done every 3-4 weeks. Now I’m doing well.
Semoga anda selalu sehat God bless you
I’m glad you got the transplant!🙏🏽
How is heart related to ascites?
My heart was dead on the right side and the blood was not circulating properly.
@@carolyngochenaur6765 does that cause ascites? isnt ascites only caused due to liver and kidney issues?
My dad said this was the most painful procedure he has ever had and it makes him sick to the stomach thinking about how he used to get this done onve a week. So glad he got new liver almost lost him. Hope this dude is doing okay now. Poor bastard
Did they use local anesthesia? I had it done with and without.
The “worst part” was the puncture of the peritoneum - felt kinda weird and disgusting! I had multiple liver transplants.
I’m glad your dad got another chance at life and I hope he’s doing well now! I wish him a long life and a lot of health!🍀
@@meellie he said there was local but too him it was so awfully bad that he was almost in tears and trembling. But thank you my dad is my hero and he is doing so great. Restoring cars! riding harleys again , making dirty jokes , painting. :) have a good one
@@eastonwashereeveryone reacts and feels differently, has a higher or lower pain tolerance! For example, for me liver biopsy was hell. They couldn’t do biopsy through my ribs, soo they had to use my hollow vein on the neck. In addition, the shaldon catheter always kinda slipped out and they had to start over and over again - 6 times!
Thankfully, I was finally sedated for my third liver biopsy!
Your dad almost died, went through so much pain and a very hard time but he survived - that makes him a even bigger hero!
Best of luck!☺️🍀
@@meellie best of luck to you as well. My dad appreciates all the support. You guys on here have been great.
Maybe a surgical resident not very skilled. I had two docs who were always very good at introducing the needle/catheter, and a third who always seemed to make things more painful. All three used local numbing injection first but the third one never waited longer than 20 seconds for the anesthetic to work while the other two always waited about two minutes, filled the time by chatting or jotting down some notes. The third doc always seemed to be in a hurry and didn't make much small talk. But even with the worst one, it wasn't that terrible compared to the greater discomfort of living with the distention. By the time I was due for my procedure I was like 'bring that sh-t on I'm ready'.
My aunt had this. She has passed a long time ago 20+ years but I can always remember her. RIP. Love you Aunt Re.
My son had so much pulled off of him it would of filled a swimming pool. He had 50lbs pulled in one day. He has a new liver transplant now praised God. My son was born with a bad liver.
Thank God he is getting better. God bless you both!
God bless you both with a long healthy life!!
My brother had a transplant, his son was the live donor. Both are doing wonderful! Happy for your son Debbie! Blessings ❤️
M sorry..
Praise the Lord.... Amen
I took my dog to the vet last month, and he's 100lbs so I didnt notice that his stomach was bloated, was calling him fatty, now I feel horrible. I found out that he had this problem and even through the drained the fluid they said I had to put him to sleep. I feel horrible I didn't know something was wrong. He was up all night panting, so I stayed up with him and took him to the vet in the morning. I never imagine they would have told me that. He was only 5. He was panting due to the fluid pushing on his diaphragm. I miss him so bad, I am devastated. Prayers to this man. I can't imagine what he is dealing with on a daily basis.
I am very sorry about your loss, I too had to put my little Heidi down a couple of months ago do to cancer from bad teeth and I really miss her everyday , stay strong and it gets easier to deal with the loss over time!
So, what happened to your dog? Did he died? I hope not
@@tarydiaz3569 the OP says that they told him he had to “put him to sleep” … then he says that he “misses him so bad” and that he “was only 5”… so yeah, I’m pretty confident that his dog is gone to doggy heaven! 😢
I realized my dog was bloated and she wasn't eating and I told my sister and we had to beg my dad to carry her because in her eyes if she died she died, and the doctor was like if we brought her a day later she would have died
Pets are family. Losing one is like losing a best friend who lives with you.
My Mom had this done every 9 to 12 days for 15 years. It was very painful for her. The hospital told her she was the longest standing patient to have this procedure ever in that hospital.
Is she doing the tapping for past 15 years
Great job, poor guy must have gone through a lot of suffering. Let’s hope good health prevails you 💙
Poor guy. He's a champ for showing people the procedure though, so others can learn from it.
Seriously! What a brave guy. I'd probably be embarrassed..
F*** that I would need half of the you tube views earnings. Period.
It looks so uncomfortable!😥 I feel bad for him suffering through that. I truly hope he has a good outcome!
His breathing rate is fast. Because the fluid was crushing his lungs and made it hard to breathe.
awful

This poor man, oh my god, this looks so incredibly painful. Never before has a medical video really made me feel for the patient like this. I'm so glad he got this relief here.
Had this done a dozen times at least prior to transplant. The most relieving thing in the world at that time in my life.
It’s weird that this popped up in my recommended videos. I kept ignoring it but finally gave him and watched it. I lost my mom November 20, 2020 due to non alcoholic liver cirrhosis. I’m here to beg everyone please get wellness exams and try your best to avoid this if possible! My mom for as long as I could remember always have elevated liver function on her labs. They constantly told her to lose weight and pretty much but the cirrhosis into “remission”. 30 years of that it turned to stage 4 quickly. She was diagnosed with stage 4 July 5, 2019. She was tired of fighting the fatigue, fluid, itching, etc. she also missed my dad who had died 5 years prior. We were SOOOO close to a transplant but she took a bad turn over night and didn’t make it..So, please. Everyone stay healthy!!!! Love to all.
I’m so
So sorry for your loss . Just found out my father has stage four cancer and
One of the places is his liver ...
This poor man looks like he is suffering ... my heart goes out to you and anyway who has to suffer like this .
This happened to my aunt. We just had the funeral Saturday (3 days ago)
I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother. I believe she loved you very much and our medical system let your family down. Please listen to your heart and live your life to the best of your ability. Be kind to others and to yourself. Make sure that you enjoy and seek experience that makes you happy. Travel, artistic things. Be careful with your health.

Excellent procedure with explanations, and rationale. This one is a keeper. I work the night shift, so I never get to see these types of procedures, I take care of the admitted patients after the fact. Thank you for the post.
They did this with my dad when he had colon cancer. He had five liters. He passed away about three weeks after the procedure was done. Grateful for those in the medical field!
Very sorry, may he rest in peace

One of the most FAKE video's I have ever seen. NOTICE he is still wearing his street cloths the IV is not connected the nurse stands there with her arms on her hips everything in his belly would have been a gel not a fluid if he had that much fluid in his belly he would have been dead SO FAKE also did I say cameras would not be allowed especially for use on Utube.
Wow I can't believe how much his stomach shrank. He must feel so much better after losing all that fluid
Yep,19 liters is 19 kilograms and that's a lot weight too...
@@petrsson Yep a lot of weight!!
Definitely! I know that feeling.. feels like you’re a completely different person! Unfortunately it only lasted for 2 or 3 hours for me then i had my (about) 16 l of fluid back🙄
@@meellie oh no!
@@meellie omg. Only such a short time of relief from all that wieght from fluid. Sad I would of hoped it would taken longer to come back.

I’ve had loved ones, one with nonalcoholic cirrhosis and the other with alcoholic cirrhosis. Either is awful, and both died. In their memory, bless this doctor for being compassionate and gentle.
@Barry Allen I don't think they were saying this particular person died. Many do not survive living with cirrhosis. There are a lot of complications that happen from a dying liver. My mother passed from kidney failure due to nonalcoholic cirrhosis. Doctors didn't know why she had it.
My immediate reaction after reading the title: “holy fauq, ew 🤢”
Also me: procedes to watch it
Its disgusting fascinating and satisfying at the same time 😆
That's pretty much me right now. LOL
Once you got your eyes on something, then you know that it catches your attention
I also don't know why I clicked on this but here I am.
It's not an ew it's a medical condition that might happen to anyone
Thank you sir (patient) for your commitment to medicine and sharing knowledge. That is selfless of you
Oh my he had to feel so much better after having all that drained. So much pressure everywhere on top of the other problems caused by the cirrhosis. He was a champ!
This video reminds me of my late dad 😢 He had kidney failure and had to do Hemodialysis for 5 years. His stomach was a bit big because of those fluid but didn't need this procedure as per doctor said because he was quite discipline to not to drink too much water each day. But sadly he passed away on July 2021. He has been through a lot in past 5 years. May my dad Rest in Peace, I love you dad ❤

Hi E O my dad had to go through this every two weeks also. He made it to his liver transplant evaluation and didn't pass three tests. He lived longer than what the doctor said 7 hard fought months.

Agree. Dr had great bedside manner
That poor, poor man. People sometimes have to suffer so much. He will feel so much better after the fluid is drained . I wish him a quick recovery.
I had a similar volume removed, and you notice the difference most when it comes to wearing a belt on your trousers rather than braces/suspenders. Sadly there is no cure for cirrhosis, the only recovery being after replacement/transplant, so this patient will need to get used to being drained regularly until a donor is found!

As volunteer on hepatic transplant clinic for children, I have seen the results on some children every week. I am still impressed about the impact of just a needle on the ascitic abdomen
I can't believe how much his gut shrunk during the time lapse. I can't imagine the pain and discomfort that poor individual was going through with so much excess fluid. Props for him for allowing the procedure to be filmed, and I'm so glad he's likely far more comfortable
It is approximately 38 POUNDS of fluid! Like 4-1gallon jugs of milk and then some. Can't imagine having that inside.
@@jmadden7270 why do they wait so long to drain it? Seems like half that much would be better, but what do I know?!!
Do they put you to sleep or deaden the belly?
He will have had to do this regularly, and is now either dead or presuming liver failure was behind this, having had a succesful liver transplant, alive.
The pain of fluid build up is super intense. It's the worst when it squeezes your lungs and heart, but mine is caused by heart failure not by liver damage. If I end up with twenty lbs of fluids I can't even lay down cause I will suffocate to death. It's shitty. This guy has much more buildup then I have had but it builds up in a different way then mine does. Fluid floods into my muscles and into any sacs that surround important organs and create lots of stress and pressure. It doesn't pool in my stomach like that at all.
I have to say "thank to" to this man also for allowing this to be filmed. As a patient in various situations, but especially because I was a R.N., I am always quick to say "yes" whenever my Providers have a student with them& ask if they can watch or assist. To be given a chance to learn on a "live" body is critical to caring for real patients. Even just the opportunity to converse with patients in the Health Care setting helps build the skills needed for a lifetime career.
I was filmed and watched viral by students all around for their education. I was glad to be a help. Even tho all i did was given permission to them to do it. They , the hospitals transplant team did everything. I just laid back and had to deal with some major pain for a couple of days. But now thank God my brother is doing great with his new/ my kidney. 😎👍🏻👏🏻🇺🇸

His abdomen looks a little cellutic post-procedure, no?
I've had to do this five times. Nine liters was the largest drain. One of the scarier but relieving things to go through.
Feel so bad for people who have to endure such things in their life. Always count your blessings, especially if you are fortunate to have good health 🙏

I had this done by a professor at Groote Schuur. Totally painless and one of the best days of my life.
thanks for the educational video, it’s really helpful. i just graduated nursing school and passed my nclex a month ago
This looks like such an awful thing to go through, people like myself who don’t have to got through these kind of things are extremely blessed!
not yet...you never know
@@hijituso hm
@@wanzzz7438 hm?
Imagine if he was born with this disease in a country that hadn't advanced clinics
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😍😘😗😚😙
This Dr has got a wonderful personality. He’s really kind and considerate of his patients. I wish all Drs would be like him 🙏🙏
Really? I didn't see it that way. To me, he seemed more focused on filming a training video than on the human being on the table. He barely interacted with the patient and did almost nothing to put the guy at ease. He also didn't regularly check in or ask if he was doing ok or if there was any pain.
@@nickb- if the patient was in pain I think he would of said
@@nickb- there is another person in the room thats checking on the pt, it is not painful as he gave anesthesia prior to poking the needle to remove the fluid.
This poor man! I am both jubilant (that he is getting help) and scare to death, because I have the same diagnosis. I'm not happy about what's been going on with my body (SO sick, down 83lbs without trying but look like melted ice cream), but I guess I should be thankful that I do not have ascites or the swelling on my list of symptoms right now. And holy crap, lord pray that you cut me a little slack and keep it that way. I hope this man has a decent quality of life for however much time he has left, and many thanks to the doc for treating him well!
I wish I could lose weight and get that low
Thank you all doctors and their patient
This makes me think of Dr. Now’s patients claiming it’s “just water weight.” Finally it’s true!
@ nikocado lol
Same as well......water can add more weight than I though
@@YouYou-sm8tf water weight is no joke, for some it could start drowning their lungs. That happened to me due to a heart condition, shits wild.
I’m sure that Pt. is on a water restriction. I don’t know if he abides by it though
This gentleman is a champ for sharing his experience. He didn't have to OK this.
Common courtasy you fool !
@@munawarhusain7844 Say wha?
@@munawarhusain7844 you need to spell correctly
@@munawarhusain7844 uh, no. He has every right to not allow recording. Some seriosly ill people just don't like the idea of being used as a study case when they come in for much needed treatment. It's a part of their rights to privacy and yes, most patients allow being recorded for educational purposes, but healthcare professionals have to respect wishes of those that don't.
I’m impressed with your paracentesis results!! 19 liters of fluid! (Old RN here) 😊 Great job, DrER!!
I just got word from my PCP that I'm being referred to a liver specialist in San Antonio for my long standing liver problems. I'm 60, never drank, smoked or done drugs. My numbers are 368, 48 and 45.
I'm shocked that they would let this man get that huge!! I felt bad for the guy. That had to be very uncomfortable.
I'm so happy you put out these videos, especially letting people know this can be non-alcoholic related. My mom has pretty severe and it's nothing to do with drinking either. I remember when she was first diagnosed and someone researched it they came to work telling everyone it was because she was an alcoholic. So it's really important people don't spread misinformation like that because she almost lost her job because of the type of job. I truly hope this man is able to get a new liver if he qualifies so he's able to get better.
I have the same problem, & I NEVER DRINK !! VERY important that people get ALL the facts !!
She would have been able to sue her job and that employee who said she was an alcoholic if that ever happened.
@@bagladietwo662 how do we prevent it
Do alcohol make fat?
Don't you just hate these calumniating know-it-alls who know nothing. Just like to knock down others to make themselves feel superior. They're pathetic.
It is great that you show these types of videos for teaching purposes but I want to say thank you so much to the gentleman for allowing it to be filmed, I would also wish him all the love in the world!
Alguém me diz em português o que ele tem?
this poor soul🙈i wish him patience and many simple joys..i hope it will get better for him one way or another💖
My uncle had this condition, they'd take 10 litres of fluids in a weak, he went through so much pain, but sadly passed on💔...
You fought love and we miss you so much🥺
Being in the medical field and working with patients like this truly is a wonderful thing. I have had to work with many patients with ascites and it is not easy to live it. Anytime we can make a patients suffering a little bit less is a good day and the reason we wake up everyday!
is it always a blessing? I sometimes feel something else when people did it to themselves
@@agathahofmann6977 Not always but no mattet whether it was due to patient negligence or lack of caring it still is rewarding to help ease someonea pain regardless of the minutia of the situation.
The problem with the world 🌎 so many want to not care because someone made bad choices obviously there dealing with the consequences. ( I'm guessing that person means people who have used drugs......) basically saying why care for them and help there pain if they brought it onto themselves. That's sad and just that comment makes you worse then any addict or recovering addict I've every met. We all make mistakes in our short lives and ultimately we have too face judgement from God someday or w.e a person's higher power is! On a plus note it really makes me feel safe knowing we have so many Jesus's and Virgin Karen's on youtube 🤣🤣🤣🤣 P.s I don't condone abusing ones body yet on the other hand I know our world is really lacking sympathy and compassion in 2021 and its only getting worse! God bless anyone reading this.
Thank you for all that you do. God bless!
@@almostsomebody3478 We have all made bad choices in life. Some are just more noticeable to others.
19 litres of fluid!! This patient must be so relieved. I hope he’s ok.
God Bless this guy!
Thank you for posing this video.
It's an educational.
Keep up the good work. 👏
My Dad went through this exact same thing when he had liver cancer. Sadly, he didn't make it but I will forever remember the doctors and nurses who kept him comfortable during his last hours. Love you Dad.
So sorry prayers for you and your family
My dad too, it sucks
Sorry for your loss man
my dad passed away last month from cirrhosis. he was only 55, im 21. he had to go through this and many other procedures because his organ failure. i feel your pain. im so sorry.
sobbing rn
Due to the pandemic, I had to do the vast majority of my nursing school education 100% online. This is my first time actually seeing a paracentesis (after getting so many question on it wrong) and this really does help me put things together. I really appreciate all of the educational material that is free for us nursing and medical students. Thank you all so much.
19 Litres!
The best to you in your studies and career!
We gotta give you pandemic nursing students a name. Y'all are a special breed. I came out of nursing school in 2014, then again in 2018. I can only imagine what it was like trying to learn how to be a nurse during the pandemic.
I had never seen this until I was already working as a nurse many many years ago. I wish we had these kinds of videos back then.
@@babyqueen2030 but if you have a degree associate or bachelor degree in nursing and tell people your a nurse they say THANK YOU! YOUR AWESOME 👌
LOL little do they know the reality of what these fake nurses are and I'm talking male female black white Mexican whoever... I've seen nurses take a oxycodone prescribed to a post surgical patient and Give the patient a Tylenol...I've seen them give wrong meds to patient in a whole different room with whole different diagnosis...I've seen nurses let a female patient with a Foley go 2 days with no urine passing and not report to doctor or anyone about the retention good lord I vould go on and on...don't get me started on the feeding meals part oh they offer the food so it's on the record that the patient ordered food and then forge the papers say he or she ate 75 percent of the meal when they didn't eat none of it and are losing weight drastically from malnutrition due to no one getting them to actually eat its insanity...nursing homes are the worse.... hospital are horrible that why I work at a wound clinic now I can actually get to treat patient and see them improve instead of go down hill any elderly inpatient is 10x worse leaving hospital then they went in and admin and Dr's say that's the way it is lol what a mess
Poor man he can actually see his feet now. That must have been awful having to carry all that fluid. What a relief.
i get this a lot, and it is. going to the hospital is such a hassle, so I end up putting it off, but its always unconfortable.
Doctor was so nice to the Mom when she came in. Such a nice guy!
The doctor has a soothing voice. Patients really need it.
I am a patient of a gastroenterologist, and as the doctor in this video, my gastro also has a soothing voice. his voice always able to calm me down on every ERCPs that we do.
Mine dosent speak and he is deaf and take half hour to get everything ready he should retire l think lol
Such a relief he must have felt. He could probably breathe so much easier.
The back pain from the extra weight would have been very uncomfortable, to say the least.
Now he breath in 4k
Не могу понять что происходит
@@gorillaau что случилось с этим человеком
The fluid accumulates again,due to the liver condition in such cases.
Prayers to you and your family 🎉🙏
I had this done when I had fluid retention due to nephritis, but I had 5 liters removed! I can't imagine 19 liters being held in there! The relief they must feel!
My poor dad had liver failure and had this done monthly. He looked 9 months pregnant. Sadly he did pass but so glad he's not in pain any longer. Prayers go this man.....
I'm so sorry
❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
My heart hors out to you about your father!
@@kimmcneer3067 this happened to my father also except for him it was every two to three weeks. Having it done during Covid lockdown and him being in another state was really hard. Thank goodness he had family near him. I remember it was so difficult for him to breathe, eat and walk.
These guy will be alive max 6 months.For any disease including Cirrhosis Tongue is the main culprit let it be for Alcohol or for oily greasy fast foods.Abovesaid clip one thing to learn Control Ur Brain.
This Doctor is a beautiful man, patient. Thank God for him. Amen
I have this done weekly and actually had one today. I was finally ready to watch it be done. This isn't easy and painful. I feel for everyone going through this. I started at 11 liters weekly now I'm down to 3-5 a week. Praying I don't need a liver transplant.
Oh gosh I bet he felt so much better after that! ❤
This brought up a lot of hard memories. My dad suffered from the same thing and had to endure many of this same procedure until we lost him in 2019.
My condolences Andrea.
Condolences for your loss.
Thank you
Sorry for your loss

Guy lost 19 litre from the belly, with his shoes on. 👏 Absolute fighter.
So restricting 🙄
True, your feet do swell up, once, I couldn't take off my boots because they had swollen up on while I was at work.
I had a step daughter who had the same thing done. I always wondered how they did that. It was very educational
