Hi, @livertrex, and Welcome to Connect. I am happy that you have chosen to participate by sharing your experience. Before my transpant, I did not have HE, but I did not drive because I becamem physically too sick. My husband, who was retired, was my caregiver and my driver when I needed to go somewhere. That was 10 years ago.

How are you getting along since the HE episode? Are you waiting for a liver transplant?

@livertrex I too welcome you to Connect.
When I had cirrhosis I too had HE episodes but mine were distinct and did not have a constant affect on me. Do you have a pretty much constant state of mild confusion and dizziness? Some of my episodes did land me in the hospital and my ammonia was very high. I also had episodes that I could just sleep off. The more serious ones were really bad. I remember most of them, but there are a few I do not. I have very vague memories of getting to the hospital when I had serious episodes. They were very scary for me, I felt like I was losing my mind.
JK
