Liver transplant: The big question

Diagnosed 12 years ago, on and off the waiting list, no longer anxiously awaiting, current MELD is down to 8, it's been as high as the mid 30's. Being monitored by Mayo AZ, no urgency, blood type A+. My meld goes up and down like a yo-yo, it will be other factors that will force trx other than MELD. Been on the fence all this time with wanting one and not. I still wish you luck on that eval, not something you forget easily but a milestone in your journey.

I have the exact story! Mine is at an ,8 on the transplant list for 10 my doctors has added me higher on exception points saying I have cancer but I currently don't . I got the call for a transplant but couldn't do it because I had a cold . But I've been struggling with risking the transplant or not it's so scary. I feel great right now .as if there's nothing wrong. It's so confusing . But I do get tired and do take lactose everyday. My family doesn't understand why I. Sceptical on doing the transplant. I'm currently inactive since I missed the chance on getting one .on the 26 of June I got to see if the will reinlist me.

Thanks, Kelly! I am preparing to pack the right things for the days there! No flip flops, t-shirts with built in bras! Snacks! I will be ready. And my sister will be along for the ride.
