I was treated for diabetes for five years then got civil doc diagnosed me as end stage cirrhosis liver. Va pursed around last year n I got Medicare n tricare for life but all say too late or not bad enough for transplant now.
I’m shutting down my stomach n all keep me in pain. All I get is pills. Western Med way. Going use eastern remedies.
Get second opinion yes and best facilities. Time is urgent. Sorry. If I sleep couple hours night or eat I’m ok. For a bit but too weak. Jim

@banzai Jim. I am so sorry to hear about your situation. Medicine is so individualized, and everybody reacts to it differently. The unfortunate part, as you are experiencing is that medical science has not yet reached the point of satisfaction and healing.
Sleeping can be a difficulty with liver disease. I am guessing that you doze a lot during the day. What do you do to pass the time?
How can I support you during this difficult time?
