@rshangle, Welcome to Connect. I just finished reading your earlier post, and I want to reach out and to let you know that your medical complications are a reality for many members who have liver conditions. I want to commend you for the powerful message of strength and determination that you exhibited by your words, "Transplant is not ruled out. I just work the plan as the doc said, as others have said here." You are among friends, and we do 'get it' because anyone we are/or have experienced the same ugly symptoms.
I never had encephalopathy. but I know from the experiences that others have shared, that it is a very frightening condition. Here are some groups where members have shared their experiences with hepatic encephalopathy:
-I have questions about Hepatic Encephalopathy

and
Hepatic Encephalopathy is discussed by members in the beginning pages of this group:
-Liver pre-transplant question

@rshangle, Are you being considered for a transplant? Are you a patient at MAyo? How can we support you as you?
