@mikej, You touched my heart this morning as I read your comment. My only 'doctor' qualification is as Dr. Mom or Dr. Grandma!
I completely understand how you feel about participation on Mayo Connect. I found Connect after my transplant. I was thrilled to find others who share similar experiences. I like to think of us as sitting around the kitchen table or on the porch enjoying a cup of coffee and chatting together. And always an endless supply of chairs and good coffee.

I like to listen and learn with others. I like to use my experience to let others know that they are not alone. I like to hear from members like @digibson whose experience is different - and also similar to yours and mine.

Diane, I remember when my GI told me that I could drink Ensure when my nausea kept me from eating. With a grin and a wink, he said, "It taste better with a scoop of ice cream". Thanks for that memory😊
Diane, with that low MELD score, are you still a candidate for possible transplant in the future? What kind of monitoring is involved?
