@gaylea1 Oh my goodness, you have been through some nightmares. I hope your upcoming procedure is less painful. I can understand your apprehension. I have been very fortunate in not having any post-transplant problems.
@joanaiken I never got the to coma stage with my HE episodes but I remember clearly one where I was sitting on the sofa and completely uncommunicative. It was like watching things going on outside and beyond me. My husband called our friends over, he is a doctor, and he told my husband to call an ambulance. I was basically catatonic. Such scary stuff.

@contentandwell I remember (somewhat) of experiences similar to yours. I'm so happy that's all in the past.

HE is very scary stuff. After the critical condition I was in prior to my second liver transplant, I have noticed some small cognitive changes. I attribute some of that to Prograf. When my dose was lowered my mind cleared, as a fog lifted.
