Guest guest Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 I m sorry your going thru this G, I know how hard this is. My sister had the same symptoms but her s turned out to be PULMONARY HYPERTENSION, caused by liver failure. It could also be fluid retention. I hope you ve gotten your husband to the doctor by now & things are going better for you both. Please let us know how your both doing. This is a very caring group & we re all concerned. warm hugs, -tilly gsaunders5@... wrote: I have been on the internet looking up my husband's symptoms. I have found " alcoholic cardiomyopathy " . My husband has gained so much weight that I am sure is fluid. His stomach is very large as well as his feet and ankles. He can not breath and is having a hard time sleeping because he can't breath and has constant coughing. His blood pressure is also very high. Can anyone give me any information on this? He is currently on a liver transplant list and has drank recently and does not want to go to the doctor for fear of being taken off. love ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 My husband said he won't go to the doctor until after Christmas. I'm really worried. He doesn't listen to me. ---- THOMAS WITT wrote: > I m sorry your going thru this G, I know how hard this is.
