I appreciate the feedback. I am in liver failure and have been thru an extensive work up at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. I have stage 4 Cirrosis caused by Hemochromotosis. I have multiple MRI’s (none in the past 4 months) and my liver is scarred and they say they only option is a transplant. I’ve got to complete one more counseling session and then will be on the transplant list.

With all of that being said and also being very aware of my diagnosis, my question is why do I feel so good over the past 3 1/2 months. I am taking lactulose, diuretics, two different antibiotics and milk thistle. Everything I read about liver failure, I had the first of March to include Ascites that was infected, hepatic encephalopathy, massive weight loss and muscle loss.

I guess my question is why do I keep feeling better everyday (other than side effects of meds). Why are all of my liver enzymes coming down every 30 days? Why do I have so much energy, no pain, no Ascites in almost 4 months, great appetite and am putting weight back on.
