@jodeej, There are so many ways that liver failure can show its ugly personality. I transplanted 9 years ago, and while I don't remember all of the bothersome signs and details, I do recall that some came temporarily, and some continued to get worse. The only for sure thing that I am comfortable sharing is that once my doctor told me that we all can show different symptoms with liver disease, even with the same underlying liver condition.

I see that your husband has an appointment coming up pretty soon. I encourage you to call your liver nurse or department whenever there is a concern about his symptoms as they change, particularly if they are affecting day-to-day life. My team always encouraged me to call them between appointments. Liver disease does not follow a scheduled set of appointments. And it is always best to be safe rather than put something off that may or may not be serious.

I know how miserable your husband must be feeling. You are doing exactly what my husband did for me by taking care of him. Prayers for both of you.
Keep in touch,
Rosemary
