@gaylea1 That's a long spell in the hospital; for HE. I was in a few times for two or three days. Lactulose definitely helps, but xifaxan helped me even more. Taking that I went almost a year with no HE episodes. When I did have one again they said it was because my liver was getting worse and I had resume taking lactulose.
When I got close to my transplant things really went downhill and both my husband and my sister were prepared for the worse. My kids live away and were not aware of how bad I was.
