Hi, thank you for sharing your story. I’m happy you have a second lease on life, too! My husband threatened physical violence and gets very moody etc. due to HE. I did not know that was the cause until his hospitalization. He is pre-lover transplant (just approved Friday) with MELD around 35 and I wanted to ask if since the transplant you feel like “yourself” again? Have you had any HE episodes since your transplant? I’m very concerned of it becoming permanent/recurring after transplant. I hope to hear your experience.

I had several episodes of HE pre-trial splat. One severe episode put me into a coma. Since my transplant a year ago my life has improved dramatically. I no longer have to worry about HE. I am much happier and a better person. HE is horrible. Please know that your spouse doesn't realize what is happening and is very confused. After his transplant he will be a different person as long as he forgoes alcohol forever
