What Causes Weight Loss, Nausea And Forgetfulness While Treating Liver Cirrhosis?
Please follow..
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking on HCM!
I read carefully all her concerns and I am sorry for the situation she is in.
You are reporting that she has abdominal liqiud and edema on legs.
These signs means that she has end stage liver disease and /or severe heart failure.
You are reporting that she has changed her personality. To my opinion she has hepatic encephalopathy. it is another sign that she is has end stage liver disease.
Otherwise in clinical practice Meld Score is use to predict 3 months mortality rate and the severity of the case.
To calculate it i need to know her medical data like:
creatinine, bilirubine, INR and sodium.
I need to know also if she is on dialisis or not.
Otherwise on line calculation for Meld score can be done by yourself.
Wish her fast recovery.
