Horrible Gout Pains, Hot Flashes, Stomach Pain After Liver Transplant. Why Is It ?

hi there. 8 years ago i had a liver transplant operation. my health has been on and off ever since. for the past year and a half, ive been experiencing horrible gut pains. ended up in hospital for months at a time. which no final cure. i now weight only 86 pounds. i am 64 years old. after eating my body gets really hot flashes, followed by tightening of my stomach , especailly on my right side. pain leaves me curled in a ball. find myself rubbing these extremley hard spots on my stomch, trying to soften them up.if i go to washroom there is alot of gas/ strong air that rushes out. what could this be?

Hi and welcome to HCM. Thank you for your query.
After liver transplantation there is diegstion disorder for sure and you need to treat this primary by changing dietary habits.
You need to avoid alcohol, smoking, fats, fast food and carbonated drinks. Eat more fruit and vegetables, boiled meat and follow some of hepatoprotective diets. It usually improves on such measures. If symptoms persists you need to do endoscopic procedures to rule out some organic bowel lesion
Wish you good health.
