Warning: 12 Weird Signs That Show You're Having Liver Damage Disclaimer: this video is for educational purposes only, so do speak to your doctor if you have any medical conditions.
I had one of the white cholesterol balls on my eyelid for at least 5 years. My right side where my liver is would ache sometimes and i would wake up soaked in sweat in the night. I quit drinking 3 weeks ago and only eat homemade meals of organic fruits and vegatables. Also grass fed beef liver, sardines in olive oil, organic pasture fed chicken eggs, you get the point. And im in bed between 9 and 9:30pm and im out of bed at 4am fully charged. I noticed 2 nights ago the spot on my eye is gone. Im never having another alcohol drink for as long as i live. Im 42.
Wow congrats!! I wish my best friend would come to the same realization. He is an alcoholic and it is killing him but he is in denial, and loves alcohol too much to give it up. He has no energy and a whole host of other problems.
1. Pale stools 2. Poor night vision 3. Swollen right foot 4. White or yellow deposits around eyelids 5. Feeling of pressure or pain on right side of ribcage especially after eating 6. Purple or red spots on lower leg or arms 7. Cracked heel 8. Itchy hands and soles of feet 9. White or clubbed nails 10. Dark urine 11. Yellow skin 12. Spider veins
Good on you. Aren't you getting up with so much more energy? I've been there, I know it's very hard, but once you've done it...wow, what a difference it makes to your daily life. No more wasting days away by nursing hangovers. Stay strong brother, it's worth it 👍
My first husband died 1 month shy of his 46th bday. He drank rot gut whiskey 1-2x a week and smoked 2 pks of cigs/day. Our grown son has been sober for over a year and is thankful for having that alcohol yoke removed. Every day he would see that daily count of freedom increase and didn't want to see that number start back to zero. I'm glad you got away from it. Watch that time add up. Quite an accomplishment. 😊
Ok. Let's be real. I don't drink. I'm an RN. I have fatty liver. Years of following a highly prossessed sugary foods have caused it, not alcohol. I agree with all your dietary recommendations. Thank you.
My parents gave us sugar when we were younger, but as I got older I figured out it was horrible for me. I didn't have any liver problems until I got an overdose of herbicides. So yes, there truly are other things that can cause liver problems & diet is a huge help. 🙂
@@sophiagertz1083 In my country if you make it to 65 (being the age at which you are entitled to a government pension) statistically you can expect another 18 years. Unfortunately the last few years for most people not worth living.
I had end stage liver disease, and I had almost all of these symptoms. Yellow eyes and skin. Cracked feet Bloated belly and feet, as well as water in my lungs. My pee got SO dark. In the hospital, where they saved it and I could see it without it being diluted with toilet water, it looked black with bits of green. Gall stones that hurt. No appetite. Very skinny. Thinning bones. Finally, vomiting and burst veins in my esophagus and stomach. My stool was white sometimes, but other times, red and, and other times, black, both of which indicate blood. I did not, fortunately, get to the point of vomiting blood. When you reach that stager, it may be too late. It almost was, anyway. I got liver cancer. Fortunately, I got a liver transplant and had my gall bladder removed in time, and so six and a and years later, I am still here to tell the story. I got hep C at age 18, from shooting drugs, which is what caused it all. I quit street drugs and alcohol at age 23, that is why I lived and was pretty healthy for as long as I was.
I got diagnosed with Hep C age 19, also from sharing needles. I only started IV drug use at age 18, so I had Hel C for a year at MOST. As soon as I found out, I went to my GI specialist and did a year of daily Interferon injections (it was combined with another medicine I don’t remember the name of). The treatment gave me horrible symptoms similar to those from chemotherapy. But by age 20 my virus load was undetectable, and still is at age 47! I also had a liver biopsy done when I found out I was infected, and the biopsy showed I already had moderate scarring in my liver. I wonder if the Hep C predisposed me to the Fatty Liver disease I was diagnosed with about 6 years ago? Funny thing about FLD. The drs always say “just lose weight and exercise more” to treat it. When I was first diagnosed with it (actually, I have the more serious version, NASH), I was only 20 lbs overweight but my liver enzymes were very high! I gained a LOT of weight when I hit perimenopause, and am now 80 lbs overweight! Ironically, my liver enzymes are currently in the normal range. Someone PLEASE explain how that is possible! Of course I stopped drinking (I allow myself to have a few glasses of wine for my birthday, and some champagne on New Year’s Eve. That’s it for alcohol). I also started taking Vitamin E when I got my diagnosis, bc I read somewhere that it helped with liver function. Idk. I wasn’t a heavy drinker before I was diagnosed with NASH, but I’ve obviously cut myself off almost completely since then. I just find it strange that my liver enzymes normalized AFTER I gained weight! WTH?
I’m very happy for you. I hope you are now able to live your best life. My young brother is in hospital now with many of these awful problems. Unfortunately he won’t get a transplant due to a heart condition.
I also got diagnosed with hep C at 18 but didn’t get treatment until 15 years later. An easy 12 week treatment. Then I got it again and was given another chance at treatment. Self inflicted. When you’re on heroin and are withdrawing you don’t care (well I didn’t) too much about using a used needle if you have to. It wasn’t until I was in prison and off heroin it was then it scared me having this infection.
Damage can also happen from ashwaganda. This is an herb. The itching that comes from liver damage is worse than anything that you can imagine. The itching is likebeing tortured.
I've got nearly all these symptoms and my grandmother died of liver cancer. I also had my gallbladder removed 15 years ago when I was only 25. I've got to change my diet and my lifestyle. The only good thing is I don't drink alcohol!
Check the carnivore diet, or more meat and a tiny bit of veggies, but if you could go all carnivore it's best, at least for now. I'm doing that too- I have a lot of these symptoms as well. Good luck!!!
Your liver can become fatty from eating sugar and starches.Carbs in other words. You need to be checked for diabetes. It's called NAFLD or Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.
@@HIGHLANDER_ONLY_ONE Yes! But I'm down with Saladino that fruit is ok with the Carni diet, but I'll never touch another vegetable. No wonder kids hate them lol
I'm mostly carnivore ...but all the way keto... I've lost weight..no longer morbidly obese. My blood pressure is now perfect, my blood work ldl, hdl, etc. including blood sugar have gone from bad or terrible to good... My inflammatory arthritis pains have gone down to almost nothing... I even have a skin condition that seems to be disappearing... Look into it folks! I'm not selling anything here... I just lost an Uncle who would still be with me if he had taken my same path..
Yes :) carnivore has been helping me too. Dealing with years of chronic tick diseases but didn’t realize that a lot of symptoms were actually due to me reacting to all the natural plant toxins like lectins, phytates & especially oxalates! I really thought all those green smoothies & fresh pressed veg juices would help me heal but unfortunately it did the opposite. Now I pretty much eat various meat (esp elk, venison & pastured pork) and raw eggs and have been improving a lot over the last year… We have been so misled to believe plants are so healthy when really they are quite toxic
@@AllThingsConsidered333 I’m all for Carnivore , but I highly doubt raw eggs are beneficial- reason I say this is I used raw eggs as a protein supplement (I used to blend them w/a banana) for about 3 months or so - then I had an overnight terrible reaction of candida overgrowth . Definitely NOT something anyone would want to go thru . I’d stick to meats and sour kraut if I were you
@@hazor777 absolutely anything is possible. There are plenty of unclean eggs out there for sure, and ive even had a friend give themselves food poisoning by not handling their own protien shake raw egg breakfast properly. Ive heard before from what i believe were good sources that candida is fed by starch and sugar, so i wondered why it was only the eggs being considered for contributing to the candida overgrowth issues?
My liver was in bad shape. I started taking burdock root every day and drinking lemon juice and beet juice every day. I am so much better now back to normal.
Nutritionist here, please note, if you have had a cholecystectomy (gall bladder removal surgery) pale stools are more normal because your liver takes up the task of producing bile for proper digestion. If you have more than this sign, definitely do something to get yourself checked out by a doctor.
Thanks so much for this info I have no gall bladder and am worried I have the spider veins in feet and the itchy inside of hands occasionally I seem to have swelling below breasts thought maby liver causes should I see a GP?
Yes I was just thinking that. I had my gallbladder removed in November 2023. My stools have never looked the same. The scar tissue on my abdomen from the surgery is horrific, large rock hard spots 😢
My hands itching like crazy is the only symptom that i can say stood out as something i couldn't explain. Was dealing with leg ulcers, DVT, blood clots, so all the swelling and spotty leg issues could be explained away. Thankfully my issue was caught early so far my live is back showing normal functions 3 months out of the hospital. Getting the life scared out of you tends to wake you and smell the other side of healthy living
With a friend who is currently experiencing End-Stage Liver Disease, I can wholly support the cessation, or at least the careful moderation of alcohol. He's only 52 and in hospice. He once told me that he wishes that he'd never started drinking. The pain that he is now in just kills me to think about. Please make wise choices. 👽✌️
Genetics are unfair. I've seen drinkers live to their 90's and it has more to do with moderation and their genetics than the absence of alcohol. I've also lost friends and family in their 40's to the same. This is why the area remains murky. Its not a 1+1=2 situation.
It does, but depending on aren't the progression of it. That can do nothing for you. I have a fatty liver at least according to last diagnosis, but it hasn't been checked in over 7 years. And the reason I was checked was because I was in acute liver failure where I was bombing, blood and foam. I mean, I couldn't even get up. I was absolutely weak. I had to be carried to the ambulance. It was that bad and I live in the u. Yes. So an ambulance is really expensive and especially since I worked at minimum wage job. That claimed the heaven churns both more like the vague idea of insurance. And in your league cost me my job because my boss refused to allow me the off day to be admitted into the hospital because they were severely concerned over the fact that I was unable to keep down fluids and the anti vomiting pill that they gave me. I kept throwing up. Eventually I told a pump link looked. I've already put in my sick day. I've already called someone mind you, that is not my job didn't know that time because I was a f****** rug. But I told her everything is handled. I just needed to let you know. Because they would not allow me out of the hospital like I was weak enough that I literally couldn't even stand for 3 days.
I was diagnosed with alcoholic hepatitis and was in bad shape I was a bad alcoholic and addict and was able to come back and now have normal liver function please get help if you're struggling with addiction
@dip9073 I was really addicted to painkillers and Xanax I went to a methadone clinic for help with that and it helped me to get off everything a lot of people don't consider that sober but I live a functioning life now and haven't used a drug or drank since I had to stop or I was gonna die I just couldn't do that to my son I know this probably didn't help talk to a doctor about help and options don't try cold turkey ita extremely dangerous to do that on alcohol just don't give up you'll find what works for you and I wish you the very best of luck it's hard but you can do it
My husband died from liver cancer. He was under the care of doctors. That took him to the end faster. He had hemechromatosis that his M.D. didn't do a good job of regulating that causes the cancer.
I appreciate your perspective, but it's essential to remember that not everything man-made is inherently bad. It's about making informed choices and finding a balance.
Your exactly right. But another perspective , when my husband went to a fill in doctor for his regular physitian. He suggested that he not let his iron levels fluctuate so much. I could tell when his iron was to high. He would be moody and have a pain in his side and sleep to much. I told my fella. You need to go see a doctor and get your iron checked. He went his iron was at 600 and something and his doctor said it was just fine. And he was going to the oncologist she said this was not acceptable and told him this missmanagment was the cause of his cancer. She was abrupt and sure of her findings. No question she had seen this many times. Well said physitian gets to repeat his shit medicine and life goes on. And also they told him to take Advil cause it's fine for people with painful liver cancer it will help.
Wait you mean our health care system hasn’t been weaponized nor is it partnered with our government for control and profit? I don’t trust the health care industry anymore than a politician. Doctors like soldiers just follow orders? Mandates? The herd? I learned the health care industry wants us sick. Our food unless we grow it ourselves should be considered poison and ALL preserved foods made with same or worse quality then a the market. Where does humanity from here when your whole existence is to enrich the rich? A new paradigm is needed but what’s on TV?
these liver videos changed my life. For the pasr couple of years my ALT been high. Its been around 129 and now its at 37. I just got blood work today and when I seen it at 37, i wanted to cry Praise God.
Good advice , went to the doctor and I was referred for an ultrasound appointment and was diagnosed with a fatty liver.Before the test my life was a mess, drugs mainly heroin ,barbiturates and alcohol.I never got my liver ultrasound back then, it must have been a mess.God bless the healing power of the liver, I've been doing well for 4-5 years and my health has improved, still working on the mental side, shame we have not found a cure for neurology and health
Really informative video! I appreciate the detailed explanations about these lesser-known signs of liver damage. It's crucial to be aware of these symptoms for early detection and treatment. Thanks for sharing this valuable information!
Thanks for the heads up! It's crucial to be aware of these unusual signs that could indicate liver damage. Our health is our wealth, so let's take care of our bodies and stay informed. Prevention is key! 💪🏥
I think you’re RIGHT. Had my gall bladder removed because an X-ray showed some gravel. I was 33 and it was AFTER that things went totally crazy. I have so much pain on my right side. Doc says it’s likely just diverticulosis. Been on all kinds of meds. Antibiotics make it worse. Have severe diareeha and back pain. So discouraged here in northern Canada. Doctors are so scarce you can’t get a second opinion or change docs.
I’ve recently been told I have moderate fatty liver. ( 3 weeks ago) and I was a very heavy drinker. I’ve made changes to my diet and physical exercise regime. And drastically cut back on alcohol. I will get my bloods done in a few days to see if it’s getting better, I hope it is. I certainly feel better for making the changes. Funny thing is I didn’t have ANY of these symptoms. So it still pays to get your bloods done yearly to monitor your health a little better.
@@reecejames4209 thanks for the reply, my blood test results came back after eating healthy, walking/jogging everyday and cutting back on alcohol. Liver numbers are back in the norm. Have a follow up blood test in 6 months. Bp when I I had it done 2.5 months ago was 167/101. It’s now 119/81
It's not just alcohol. Sugar is just as bad. Berberine is all the new rage right now, and one thing it helps with is moderating your sugar levels. But cutting out processed foods - anything that comes in a box or has an ingredient list - is a goal to work towards.
Mike Hancho. Please ask your doctor to have your parathyroids checked. This might be the cause of the migraine headaches. It was for me. I had horrible migraines for forty years. It wasn’t until i had serious loss of memory that the parathyroid was checked. It was well worth having 2 of the four removed. I no longer have migraines. My heart goes out to you.
My endocrinologist said that my parathyroid gland probably isn’t a cause of my memory and concentration issues. My primary care doctor says it could be causing all the problems I’m experiencing. And now liver is fatty. Thanks for this video. I will start incorporating these changes, I already do some. Anyone else have the cognition issues?
I had pain on my right side and tried fasting 3-1/2 days. Then I remembered hearing about TUDCA from Dr Berg so I took it on 4th day and pain went away immediately. I need to quit sugar & alcohol, clean up my diet and love my liver so it can take care of me! Thanks for great video.
Just drink beetroot juice (but remember to drink atleast 2-3 liters of water to avoid stones). Also when you wake up, drink warm water with lemon/lime juice on the empty stomach. Do this combination for 3-4 months and keep testing your liver every month to see the results and adjust the intake of beetroot juice.
I got a new liver in May. It was NASH, my doctor, didn't catch it in time. Three rejections, seizures, and TIA later believe me changing diet would have been much easier. Thank you for the information. Haven't heard about the bile supplements before.
Finally and saddle I understand more now why I have lost my gallbladder.😢 Thank you so much for this great and precious information and all your work. The good news that I'm on intermittent fasting too.
A lot of these symptoms are also caused by taking statins needlessly. It's well documented that statins do absolutely no good for you but rather cause major bodily functions to fail and even become irreversibly damaged! If your doctor insists on you taking statins insist on getting a new doctor that will help you, not kill you.
2 friends of mine were put on statins and both developed diabetes. Seems statins aren't good for most people. Cure one thing, create another problem, then take meds for that.. We need cholesterol, the body makes it, one type is LDL the other, HDL. If it's too high, look to a ND for real solutions. Naturopathic Dr's are a wealth of information, and do detective work finding out real problems you might be suffering from. Too bad they're not covered by our health coverage in Canada, as I feel they'd save more lives with preventative care. ... An ideal medical team would be a mix of ND 's and MD's
This information about statins is not true. Complete lie. True, don't take drugs unnecessarily. However, statins are proven to help reduce cholesterol in the blood which is demonstrably shown to contribute to heart disease. Of course, before taking drugs, eat healthy and lose weight.
@@lindapickford5991 You have been warned, now you are on your own. I learned the hard way, I was hoping this warning would be of help to others, it looks like warnings are not for everyone. RESEARCH!!!
Just a small point of mild argument ! 1. Women on the pill may get spider naevi vessels on legs as described, but dont necessarily have liver problems. 2. Fruits with fibre lowers fructose absorption, so drinking pure juice isnt good but if eat the fruit or blend the fruit so that drink has plenty of fibre , then you get the benefit of vitamines, fibre and no sudden high influx of sugar. If lemons ir lines are organic, add in the skin to your blended drink ! For more nutrient benefit. Im not sold on fructose being damaging to liver , any more than glucose - its the sudden high concentrations that are damaging.
No. The moment you "blend" fruit or juice it, you break the cell walls - ergo your body has to process it as pure sugar. Yes, the fibre is good - but you shouldn't blend or juice fruit for the reasons above. What you wrote is a common misconception; but that's the Truth (I hv a PhD)🙏🏻🇬🇧
@@sweethearteu Thanks but you don't need a PhD to see that blending fruit releases the sugar just as if you chewed your fruit well. However , fibre is good for the gut and it still physically ( not chemically) lowers the rate of absorption, but not the total amount of sugar present. It's the rate of sugar absorption into the blood that causes the spike in blood sugar & insulin. If you blend a orange say with a lime or lemon , again you are not only reducing the absorption rate but also the total amount of sugars as lemons and limes are not sweet , so you are diluting by volume. If you drank the mixture after a meal , again you slow down the absorption compared to drinking on an empty stomach Anyway , each to their own. I feel the benefits of real fruit is worth it for a sugar spike and you can manipulate the situation to reduce that spike, and if you happen to be physically active too , that will use some up.
I don't drink alcohol. I ended up with some fat on my liver. I didn't know corn oil or nut oils were bad. I found Liveatone on Amazon gastronologist Doctors made it helps clean your liver and repair it. I hope this helps
I appreciate your perspective, but it's important to remember that not everything man-made is necessarily harmful. Many advancements in technology and medicine have improved our lives. It's all about balance and making informed choices.
It's been a year since I was diagnosed with a fatty liver and never got any treatment. I've been ignoring it until this.... This gives me chill 😅.. Think it's high time for me to take care of it before it's too late.. I'm 42 and not getting any younger 😅.. thnks for the wake up call.
Please get help for your fatty liver asap. I was told for years that I had fatty liver, but that it was nothing to worry about. I now have advanced cirrhosis. Do something now, before its too late.
Thank you for sharing this very informative video. This will help a lot to those who are ezperiencing luver disease👍 For me it is of a more preventive way to keep my liver healthy as I always go for prevention. Thank you and God bless you👍
It's so exciting to know that i've been doing a hand full of these things already! fasting is a huge one made a huge difference in my BMI and i just feel so good. my body breaks down food so fast and i can maintain my weight without really trying or having to think about too much.
I believe an alternate reason for pale stool, is an UNDERPRODUCTION of stomach acid. My understanding is that the dark color is actually caused by the combination of stomach acid with bile. My stools darkened right up when I started taking betaine HCL with my meals. And, of course, no more acid reflux, which is caused by an UNDERPRODUCTION of stomach acid.
Thank you for this comment. I am starting to take digestive enzymes with my meals when I remember, but I may add Betaine HCL to the list because I also have acid reflux. Thank you
@@nelliewwe6712 please be careful though. It fixes acid reflux, but too much and it causes ulcers. Do your research. I take anywhere from 2 to 5 of these. Probably 5 today cuz I am eating starches. If I am not eating starches, I am usually fine with 2 or 3. I hope that helps.
Floating stool does not necessarily mean liver damage. Unless it has an oil slick appearance AS WELL, floating just means that there are more methane producing bacteria.
Too many Tylenols can poison your liver quickly. I had pain and took too many, I almost destroyed my liver. If given the chance your liver can completely heal itself, mine did.
Tylenol and drinking alcohol destroys your liver. My 31 yr old niece had back pain from a car accident. She took a lot of Tylenol and drank daily. By the time she went to the hospital it was too,late.. so sad.
I understand your concern, and it's essential to be cautious about what we consume. However, it's also worth considering that not all man-made or processed items are harmful. It's about making informed decisions and striving for a healthier lifestyle.
@udavidism I worked at a pharmaceutical company where we packaged generic drugs such as hydrocodone, lorazepam and oxycodone. I am beginning to wonder if that had affected my liver?
True, but who wants the last few of those years to be in agony and pain if one could at least try to treat their bodies better? It’s easy to say this if you haven’t got to this point. This is something that most of us can do. Wish other organs were as tough as our liver and could repair itself.
This video is amazing! I subscribed, I must have the symptoms, and the Dr puts me in this diet, and yes, I have epatitis, after a blood test, and Dr. is going to get me a sonogram, and Dr. says exactly what's in this video. I'm impressed ! Now, definitely, I will follow and recommend this channel forever❤❤ Thanks!!
You don’t want to die from end stage liver disease. It’s a slow, devastating, painful way to go. Don’t count on getting a replacement liver either. It’s a rarity to qualify. You MUST STOP ALL ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION PERIOD! No exception! No cutting back! Total abstinence! If you don’t you die! Don’t make the mistake of thinking cirrhosis damage will heal. It won’t. It can only stay the same or get worse. You don’t want it getting worse.
Thank you for sharing your opinion! It's important to be mindful of what we consume, but it's also worth noting that not everything made or processed by humans is inherently bad. It's about making conscious choices and staying informed.
"I appreciate your perspective! While it's true that some man-made products can be harmful, it's essential to remember that not everything falls into that category. Understanding the ingredients and making informed choices can lead to a healthier lifestyle
Great video. I have watched a lot of videos on liver damage and I don't think I've ever seen one as comprehensive as this! I also like your voice, easy to listen to. Subscribed now ❤
I respect your viewpoint! It's crucial to be mindful of the quality and source of the products we use. Some man-made things may have drawbacks, but with proper research and awareness, we can make choices that benefit both our health and the environment.
I understand your concern, but it's worth noting that advancements in technology and medicine have greatly improved our lives. It's essential to differentiate between harmful and beneficial man-made products and processes.
I stopped drinking in 97 advised by a Dr. Im 60 now and have Stage 4 cancer and high liver enzymes. Im disappointed that i gave up booze and my liver is not regenerized healthy. Im still glad i dont have to drink anymore.
Thank you for these great health insights....🙏🙏🙏🙏 I had fatty acid about 15 years ago. Now I am 62+ and I maintain best of health. Have not taken any pill or medicine (at least a pain killer or a antibiotic other than state rule administered Covid vaccines) for the last 08 years. But, one thing that I know is I have practiced 95% of your presented facts in this tutorial. Extremely happy to project me as a living example.... ❤❤❤❤❤❤I am now strong than a man in mid-thirties and I achieved it despite prescribed medicine for me after an open-heart surgery CABG in 2009 (05 bypass). I am sure this note will encourage more global citizens to change lifestyle and achieve best of health in life than suffering in death after sixties.
"I haven't taken medicine but I took the Covid shots" Have fun dying of a heart attack despite your efforts. Way to undo everything you've been doing for 15 years...
Didn’t know the night blindness but ✔️ Those lipid deposits are not only around the eyes The right shoulder and scapular pain is not nice Apart from the meds the biggest help I’ve found is albumin or egg white powder And Blanch chain amino acids
Basically, it's best to remove not just the foods invented since the 1950s, but also the foods we've come to rely on since the adoption of agriculture some 5 000 - 10,000 years ago: grains and all types of refined foods.
I woke up one day with the overwhelming urge to drink, apparently. I went from being someone who might have had like, four beers a couple times a year to drinking 1, 2, 3L of hard liquor every day, and as many beers/whatever was around as I could lay my hands on. Nothing precipitated this change, I literally became a major alcoholic over night. I drank like this for about 4, 5 years, and following many accidents, broken bones, fights, losing jobs and relationships, etc it took me breaking my skull and having my brain leak out of my head to see that I was doing myself no favors by drinking so heavily. My family urged me to be evaluated, and the doctor said if I didn't stop drinking like that, I would be dead within two years based on the state of my liver and kidneys. It takes no time at all to destroy your body for good.
@@Stierenkloot Yeah, I'd say I got the short end of the stick in pretty much sitting around waiting to die after just a few years of drinking, when there are a ton of people who drink heavily for like 50, 60+ years and seem to suffer no ill consequences and go on to live into their 70s and 80s like everybody else while I'm dying in my 30s.
Genetics as well!! My FIL had symptoms but he & MIL living in Appalachian 'medicine access' he was diagnosed/ misdiagnosed too late. He died. Didnt hardly drink but many Motrin, etc. My hubby, diagnosed about 7 yrs ago with what is NOW called 'NASH' ...NON ALCOHOLIC STEATO-HEPATITIS. Hes had a Shunt, is able to receive Donor Liver per UofM. He 'abused' HIGH doses of Ibuprofen per his former Internist 'okay'!!! Now, LIVER DISEASE, Fatty Disease & NASH!! Happy we have an excellent Liver Team w/i an hour or so. ❤
