My Mother Is Having Severe Liver Problem- Please Suggest Treatment
Hi My Mother is having severe liver problem. Water is to accumulate in stomache and hemoglobin percentage is dropped to 7 %. She has this problem since many years. Already consulted physian, he told liver was damaged and she need to be under medication for entire life. And should not eat any hard food. After taking medicine she used to have frequent urination and weakness feeling. After 3 months of medication hemoglobin percentage improved to 8%. Please suggest better treatment for my mother

you should consult some liver specialist,if possible he can treat with medicine & if liver is completely damaged irreversibly,she can undergo liver transplantation now a days at any good liver transplant center
Hi,thanks for query.Your doctor is right in case of permanent liver damage medicines are must for whole life.Frequent urination may be because of disease it self or drugs used for it.If you think she is not doing well ,please consult a liver specialist in your city for further advise.Hemoglobin is very low and this could be the reason for weakness.Do go for regular follow up and do not discontinue medication on your own.bye.
