Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 sorry dorothy i disagree..... I have gone through many of same conditions as jana and this does not seem like ascites....... I have had it for years and no one knows nothing....... but I think your advice is good...... if she were sick and the bloat was soft like ascites with pain.......... your friend probably did have ascites... Let's not try and scare people.......... not trying to be a meany, but ascites is very very different than just big ol bloating...... love and hugs, sally --- Dorothy <dorv@...> wrote: > The bloating you describe is quite serious I believe and I think that > you > need to go to a hospital at once.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 It wasn't my intent to scare her, but I think it's something that deserves attention - and quick. When this happened to my friend, she died in under 2 weeks. AGAIN, I am NOT trying to scare anyone and maybe I am just nervous about that symptom because of what happened to my friend. She died at 41 and it was an awful blow to me losing my best friend. ----- Original Message ----- From: nmilover > sorry dorothy i disagree.....
