Re: hi group Questions?Hi,

July 18, 2011

I am Bobby a group moderator here. I caught my cirrhosis from alco9holism, so I

am no expert at Hepatitis if it is from the C virus or B virus etc. Hepatitis is

a word which means " inflamed liver " . Many things can inflame a liver including

too much fat in the diet, alcohol, chemicals such as Chloroform, and Either for

anesthetic in the old days when people had surgery, exposure to tri chloro

ethylene, and pesticides, as well as disease pathogens from sharing drug

needles, bad water and I guess maybe even pollution etc. Livers are amazing

things, but every day thousands of people on this earth damage their livers

without knowing it, and eventually some of them end up with chronic scar tissue

which is cirrhosis, also called end stage liver disease. I hope this helps.

> My name is , I have been a passive listener for long time but really not

paying too close attention to content and I hope I can be forgiven. I have a few

questions that are all over the place. If anyone wants to take a stab at them I

would appreciate it. I had an operation a few years ago and now I feel choked

everyday. I find doctors say its in my head its gurd, its scar tissue its this

and that and I am astounded with their lack of concern. Of course I am in a city

where people tend to not care about each other but that may be my paranoia. So

the bottom line Is each day I think I am going to die. I am in my own hell but I

have to bring up a yg daughter and wife .. wife has hep b but not active. I hope

I described it right. My daughter thankfullly was gven shots when born and

doesn't have it or carrier indication

> I live in a very polluted city in US and we are too poor to move. I am certain

this is not helping me or my wife. I wonder if any study was ever done to show

correlation between illness and hepatitis and pollution levels. I am betting

just being here hurts my wife immensely, I wonder what if any options I have .

If we both die who takes care of daughter. Her only familyis in Philippines very

far away.
