Hello @three,

I’m so sorry I didn’t see your message earlier; I sincerely hope your husband is feeling better now. Since you mentioned that your husband may not have liver disease, I did a bit of research which led me to this information about "Noncirrhotic Portal Hypertension or NCPH.”

Portal hypertension is abnormally high blood pressure in the portal vein (the large vein that brings blood from the intestine to the liver) and its branches. Cirrhosis is the most common cause of portal hypertension, but it can also be present in the absence of liver disease like cirrhosis – noncirrhotic portal hypertension. https://aasldpubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/cld.497

@three, has your doctor offered a treatment plan for your husband?
