It's not all about the MELD Score

Got my three month MELD update today: up from 11 to 16. Makes me feel better as I was concerned it wouldn’t change much. Dealing with exhaustion now - resting in all my spare time so I can keep going to my part-time job. Thinking about going on disability through my employer.

Hi @kitchrmn, Is the fatigue a new symptom for you? I remember how I would melt into the couch after a day of teaching. At first, I tried to blame it on a hard day of teaching. But soon learned that it was my advancing liver disease. It is good that you are being monitored.

Are you currently on the transplant list? Or are you approaching your evaluation/listing as your MELD score gets higher?
