I am sorry to hear about this I wish I could answer your Qs. I was just browsing and came across this.I had to post something back!My daughter was very sick about a week ago. She is fine now. But it was so scary.No one knew what she was sick with... Thats the worst part.She is only 2. She was passing alot of blood in her stool....Well we,as humans, always think of the worst first.I felt like the Dr.s were not doing enoff.But I now know that if you trust your DR. with all your hart then your mother is in the right place!But if not...Find some were you do trust.Ya'll will be in my familys prayers.  when you don't know what to do,Take your hands off the situation-by not worring(as much)-and God will then take care of it.

Could be renal insuffiency, meaning his kidneys can't get rid of all the fluid from his body, or he could be developing CHF (congestive heart failure), which means his heart isn't able to effectively circulate the fluid in his body. It could be a combination of both.\n It could be swelling from poor blood circulation, or a liver problem if he consumes alcohol. \nIt's hard to say without a through medical history. It sounds like one of the first 2 to me, so he better get to the doctor, fast(I mean like yesterday if he wants to live!)Both can be deadly. His body is telling him something and he better listen.

First of all, I have no idea what you mean by "effected"\n\nSecond, this is not the place for such an answer. Each individual is different and consideration of those differences is essential. Also the nature of the problem and it's cause also have to be factored in. \n\nThis answer must come from your physician and if for some reason you do not feel comfortable with the decision, get a second opinion from another physician.\n\nA damaged or diseased liver is a serious thing and needs professional help.

I heard recently she did not have Chron's disease like they thought, she had an intestinal blockage that could have been surgically removed and she would have lived.\nSo sad.

Sorry to hear about that I have close family members with that terrible illness. Have you considered looking for a liver transplant support group to join? I would not like to see you go through that trauma again. I will see if I can find some groups near you. Should there be none in your area think about starting one. I need to know approx the area you live. Take care ~A~

Horrible, fat is the worse of all of above, the liver has to work ten times as much and yet reject it, then it will deposit lipids around the walls of the arteries creating a dangerous build up, starch creates minor problems and protein is a not to worry about, just stay away from those hamburgers..☺

Why is your liver enlarged?? Did they damage your bile ducts during surgery? Have you been tested for Hepatitis? You really, really, need a second opinion!

theyre not using a diet...their just not eating.  nicole richie began an extensive exercise program but didnt eat anything.  lindsay lohan even said in an interview that the only reason she lost so much weight was because her parents got a divorce, she was stressed, and she just wasnt eating.  but, she also said that she felt really unhealthy and now that she's eating again she feels much better.  just do diet and exercise, that will be your best bet.

get an explicit video of advanced liver disease and plug it in for him to watch....he should back it off to one or two a day and just enjoy having a lesser amount. he's getting a buzz and that isn't a good habit to get into....you've got your work cut out for you, it's going to be a hard sell but tell him how much you love him and that you only want to help because you care. is he getting red cheeks and nose yet?

Yes, my wife died of liver cancer 2 years ago, It is the most painful way to die too. The blisters are common, so is edema in the feet hands, and back. The liver becomes really swollen, and Doctors call that asides fluid, and you start to bleed internally, and become incontinent.\n\nI wish you and your family the very best of luck.

Sounds more like liver failure to me, and there is a syndrome when both fail to function, called hepato-renal syndrome.\n\nOR\n\nCould be gallbladder disease, true true unrelated.

I' m not sure why at this point someone has not addressed surgery. Is she being followed by a cardiologist? Unless something else is the cause of what sounds to be heart failure, it seems like her regurg. is finally become symptomatic. Has no one approached her about surgery? Has she been told for some reason that she is inoperable? You definetely don't want to jump into surgery if you dont need to. I feel like I need more info to adequately answer your question though. What I would do is direct these questions towards her doctor, preferably a cardiologist. Has she had a heart cath yet?  If not, maybe see if its time. Email me if you find out more or if you have anymore questions. Im a RN in the cardiovascular ICU, I specialize in heart surgery. Good luck to you guys!

Nathan, bud, I don't think it's Grave's but I do think it's something else.  I had Grave's and I had no fat on my body (looked anorexic), ate all the time, bounced off the walls, could not slow down, couldn't remember stuff, and had some anxiety.  I had fine tremors in the hands and my body was eating the thigh muscles for food, so when I walked down the stairs, my legs shook.  \n\nThat said, not all your symptoms add up to Grave's, so that's the good news.  The bad news is it sounds like Hashimoto's, the opposite of Grave's (and what I have now, coincidentally enough), and that requires a blood test.\n\nI was and am afraid of needles.  Blood tests ARE required for many diagnoses, so I have learned to deal with them - do not look at the needle, notify the phlebotomist you are a wuss and may cuss at her as she withdraws blood, keep up a running commentary about the walls or decor of the office as she withdraws it (stick in "Hmm, that hurts" when it does), and in general just do it, no matter how it must get done.\n\nIt's not good to have either illness and ignore it.  It does long term damage.  I sit here today with a heart that belongs to someone 10 years older since mine beat so rapidly for so long, so I am going to be a prime candidate for a heart attack as I age.  It's not worth it -- go to the doctor.\n\nGood luck!!
