Thank you for your feedback @athenalee . So you currently have ascites? Do you have to have the fluid drained and if so how often? We are hoping that tips will lessen the fluid build up - my husband has had ascites for 4 years now and currently taps every month at the hospital.

No, in July 2020 my illness progressed to the point that I was placed on the transplant waiting list. I was very fortunate to receive a liver transplant that August.

I know it’s a struggle and long journey for you and your husband. I’m hopeful your husband can receive the opportunity for a transplant.
