Clue less to Liver failure
| Fri, 08-20-2004 - 7:26pm |
Hello, I am writing because my husband went to the hospitol for throwing up blood and there was also blood in his stool. The Dr. had told me there was a 50/50 chance that he would survive and my husband beat the odds. For six days he was asleap he could hear us talking to him but would only moan but he could not move at all. On the eithth day they discharged him he had just started walking that day when they sent him home. We have no insurance, my husband is self employed he is a barber so we are trying to get medical and since we have no children and we had $2,000 in the bank it makes it hard for us to qualify for anything. His primary doctor has not told us much. He just told us that it is serious and to watch his diet. When I asked the doctor questions about his liver failure he just told me the basic I got more information off the internet. Does anyone know what kinds of food he can eat? I know it has to be low in sodium. My husband has Hep C, Cirrhosis of the liver and Diabetic type 2. His eyes dont look yellow but his stomache big. You can see the vains in his skin and he has lost a lot of weight. The doctor has told him he is disableing him. It is hard because of his health and we dont know what we will do finance wise. I earn $600.00 and he would make $4,500 a month but now we will live off my income until we hear from social security. Anyone know what we can do? We live in San Diego California. Is there anything I should look out for? He has been feeling tired and im not sure if it is depression or what. I am scared. Thanks
