Hi! I've was told I have cirrhosis 1 and a half years ago and actually it hasn't always been like this. It started with acistes(fluid in my belly). That's what alerted me that something was wrong. But it's just gradually gotten to this point. But a lot of symptoms along the way. Vomiting a gallon size bag of blood from a bleed inside, drawing fluid every couple months, then it got better for a little while once I was medicated with lasix to keep the fluid down and frequently getting endoscopy looking for bleeding. But now another bout with these new symptoms with my heart a sign that it's getting worse. So it's more like a up and down rollercoaster. With every new symptom until the Drs figure how treat it. Then it's better till the next symptom. It hasn't all been terrible even though it sounds bad . God finds us a way to deal with things we never thought we could. Make sure you find the best doctor around. And ask a lot of questions. Even if they don't like it. Who's health is it anyway. All the best to ya!
I have found out that all my problems including my liver , portal hypertension, gallbladder and kidney and pancreatic problems are all related to Heart failure, they diagnosed me last week and I done some research on it. All theses problems have happened within the last 2 years
My heart is only functioning @ 35 % and the prognosis is not good. I’m now wearing a life vest a ACD till they decide what they are going to do. I hope you get to feeling better soon and wish you well thank you for your response ❤️❤️🌸
