Hi MAW. I had my liver transplant 2 yrs ago. When I was diagnosed
In January 2020. The liver team knew from tests I was in need of a new liver. Total chirossis
Then tumors cropped up but doctors took care of them. There would only be more in future. Till the date of operation I went thru hell. But my medical doctor who I saw for over 7 yrs. Did not pay
Attention to my symptoms. Signs on body. Blood tests.never sent me for biopsy just maybe..I could of gotten better with treatment..but because of him I'll never know. I hate his guts!
@maw90455, I'll be thinking of you on Monday when you have your appointment. i hope that you get some of your questions answered - Don't be shy about asking your questions while you are there!
I spent nearly 8 years with only tiredness and nausea while my liver disease progressed to cirrhosis. When I was sent to the liver transplant clinic in Kentucky, I was yellowish with jaundice, had itchy skin, nausea, and the tiredness became fatigue. My blood pressure was stead and not fluctuating, but was carefully monitored.
Gotta go - Laptop battery is about to go dead. See you tomorrow. 🤍
