Can you reverse Cirrhosis?
Is this a good place to ask about health? I've been drinking since I was 15. Heavily for the past decade. I know have liver problems. I am going to UCSD (medical center) in AUG. I had Ascites and Jaundice in OCT 2015 and in hospital for a week. I went back to drinking Sad I felt so hopeless because the doctors weren't helping, they were making it all worse by not following through with treatments as they said they would. It was scary but no excuse to drink.
Anyways, I stopped drinking 15 days ago. Now I am trying to repair my liver on my own since I don't see any specialists until AUG. I was also diagnosed with Colitis & Epilepsy years ago, been bed-ridden. My blood is so low, I can't stand long and my energy is gone, that's just the tip of it all.
I take milk thistle and am under Doctors care (even though they haven't been helpful in seeing me when I need them and they don't have answers) Ive been though so many doctors so I know I have to help myself. I research alot, but I would like to hear what you do to help your liver bounce back, if it CAN. Has anyone come back from liver disease or cirrhosis? If so, how?
I need some new ideas or inspiration on health. Esp. the liver. I am not seeking medical advice, just personal experiences would help me out alot, maybe some encouragement, too
