Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 It will be hard since he sounds like he doesn't have the desire to do what it takes.. here is a website that gives alot of good info.. and maybe you can incorporate some of the things listed... http://www.liverdoctor.com/Section4/fattyliver.asp Milk thistle is good for the liver also.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 I may have to give him a scare to get him to work at it.....I think the threat of a liver transplant should do it......lol. Seriously....he really needs to get things settled.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 My mother could not have a liver transplant because they said she was too fat and her sugar levels were too unstable. Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 That's what it took for me. Several liver biopsies, a couple of ultrasounds on my gallbladder, chronic diahrea that turned me inside out about 12 times a day, jaundice, disabling retching (I am not physically capable of throwing up or burping), and of course the threat of a transplant. If he wants to live, and live well, he will change. If he doesn't, then he won't. Harsh, but true. Hang in there for him, and we'll be hanging in there for you, giving you our strength.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 thanx. At least I now know why he has a problem with anger....his body must be so off kilter. I guess that is why my gut was telling me not to kick him out yet......I felt that something was wrong.....can't explain it. I had other abusive relationships and I left right away....but this was different. Now there is hope if they can get this under control.
