Hi, my husband has alcohlic liver disease . Was diagnosed Jan 2012 and has been dry every since. However, compilcations since onset with stomach ulcer , bleeding varacies, enlarged spleen amongst other things. His liver function has been steadily rising even though his blood platelets have been low. He had steriod injections in his lower back 8 weeks ago. He has since been having water retention in his legs and his liver function is dropping. Own GP is concerned, would having steriod injections be the likely cause of the sudden drop in his liver function. I can confirm no alcohol has been consumed since Jan 2012.
