Yea my hands do sometimes , its the ones in the back of my thigh that someone could walk up and hit me with a bat and I wouldnt know they were there , a friend was telling me how bad he gets them then he saw me get one, said it was painful for him to see . Yea the pop is my down fall ! I think couple things bother me the most, since I am always outside working every time i bump my hand or arm , by the end of the day looks like I was in a butcher shop and bruises wow, I have a bad back and the sciatic nerve is a killer, many days have to stop and let it clam down, and a drop foot but crazy thing is I didnt have any of this before my liver problem , I find it amazing what your live does or doesnt do , oh and the joint pain in knees, omg ! No I did not and i am not sure what happened , it sounds like I am going to see a team of doctors at SLU, but they have all my records and said should get me in early next week! Thanks so much , Mike

I know, the experience is overwhelming and isolating. I was very healthy all my life, no meds, no hospitals, until until the summer of 2019 and I turned 60. I felt like my life was upended. Stay strong and positive Mike!
