@racing212 I had those issues while I was waiting for a transplant, they were what brought my cirrhosis to the forefront of my medical care. I had some very mild episodes and if I lay down and napped for a while I woke up fine, but I did have others where I had major confusion and delirium and ended up hospitalized for a few days. I had one episode that I can remember quite well. I was sitting on the sofa and totally unresponsive. I remember it as if I was observing it! My husband was very concerned and called a doctor friend of ours who immediately said I needed to go to the hospital - that was early on, before my cirrhosis was diagnosed and before I was on medication.
I am sorry you are dealing with this. Are you on lactulose or xifaxan? Xifaxan really was a huge help for many months, and when the episodes began again I had to resume taking lactulose, but even then I had minor episodes. That was shortly before my transplant.
