serious health issue needs answers ASAP

What are the symptoms of liver cirrhosis?

The symptoms will depend on how much damage has occurred to the liver.

In the early stages there may be no symptoms at all and the disease may be discovered as a result of an investigation for another illness.

As the disease progresses, tiredness, weakness, lack of energy, loss of appetite, nausea and weight loss may develop.

In the later stages the liver is struggling to perform all its functions and any or all of the following symptoms may be present.

* Jaundice: this is the yellowing of the skin (jaundice) and the eyes due to the failure of the liver to remove a substance called bilirubin from the blood.

* Nail changes: the shape and appearance of the nails may change. They may be more curved (clubbing) and they may be white rather than pink.

* Skin changes: about a quarter of patients will have darkening of the skin.

* Fluid retention: this is common at some stage in cirrhosis. An important function of the liver is to rid the body of excess fluid through the kidneys and when it fails, fluid gathers in the legs (oedema) or in the abdomen (ascites).

* Abnormal blood vessels: the commonest abnormality is a spider naevus, which is a spot surrounded by fine blood vessels. A red face is also common.

* Easy bruising: nosebleeds and easy bruising occur as a result of abnormal blood vessels and delayed clotting because the liver does not make enough clotting proteins.

* Enlargement of breasts in men: the liver destroys the female sex hormones and in cirrhosis these accumulate and cause enlargement of the breasts and shrinking of the testes in men.

bloodline the above post was probably the one you want to listen to most as well as anyone telling you to get your bloodwork done asap.

here is what i would do:

go to the doc and find out what your bilirubin level is by having your liver checked with bloodwork.

your liver cannot feel pain;that is true, however it can swell and the nerves surrounding the liver will start hurting and you will feel the pain on the right side right behind and under your rib cage. your burping and stuff may be because you are not getting as much bile to help digest your food. do you find this problem is worse after eating a meal high in fat?

trust me if your bilirubin gets above 10 you will start to get the following symptoms: tired(very tired), diahrrea(clay colored), frothy, dark yellow/orange piss, yellow eyes, skin will begin to itch(may aso get goosebumps for no reason), upset stomach, lots of gas, darkening skin.

if the bilirubin gets even higher, like 20 or more, you gonna wish you were dead. your skin will itch so bad you could itch it raw and keep itching because you can't stop, eyes will be very yellow, skin will turn dark orange looking, very orange looking piss, diahhrea multiple times a day, you will lose a bunch of weight, stomachache constantly, so tired you will not do anything (even work) and it will mess with your mind in a way that will make you just kind of there.

bad thing is that the dr cannot do anything to help you. seriously. they will just have you take blood tests every week at least to see if it gets better or not. if it does not get better you may be transferred to the liver ward at your local hospital. no shit.

now i am not saying this is what is going to happen to you, but if you are as concerned as you sound you should go to the dr. and find out. don't mess around with your body bro get it checked out by having blood work. if you do not want to tell the doc you did roids, tell them you took a zpack. allergic reactions to zpacks do the same thing to you. i would tell him the truth though.

now go to the dr.
 
If your bilirubin gets up over 20 your in very serious danger of dying. I've seen reports on 6 people that had total bilirubin over 20 and 5 out of the 6 died.

OK then i am the one that lived.
 
Go get the Blood work, could also be Gilberts Syndrome, it is a cyndrome that also affects the liver due to high billirubin count. Being that he has not posted is a concern !
