I have also recently has blood drawn and a large battery of tests.
lab tests are coming in. my liver is at advanced cirrhosis and nearing point of needing a transplant. blood sugar, kidneys, and hormone levels are all being effected. my estrogen levels are super high because my liver is unable to filter them out (maybe caused my breast tissue growth from D to DDD). they will change my diet plan with hopes they can keep cirrhosis from progressing further.
All viral causes have been ruled out, and I'm not a drinker. Diagnosed as complications due to a fatty liver/overweight.
I'll get my new diet plan today.
I've been thinking about this post lately and feel the need to respond now.
I was going to ask you earlier than this post darling, what the cause of your cirrhosis was, if not from drinking. I'm glad that you are apparently not a hopeless alcoholic, but I am surprised that cirrhosis could be caused by something else! My ignorance, I guess. The reason I'm writing this is that I do often enjoy a drink, and the last time I got a set of bloods done, it did show that I am slightly above the normal range for whatever the liver function blood test measures. No hint of cirrhosis though. That reading has come down significantly from two years ago, so I am on the right track, but anyways, and sorry for beating around the bush - one thing I've done for years is to pop a Livatone (milk thistle) pill the morning after any alcohol consumption the day before, regardless whether it was just one light beer at dinner or whether I've let myself go. Apparently, milk thistle helps detox the liver, which is why I take it, but one thing I only discovered recently is that it also speeds up estrogen breakdown!
Just speculating, over many years, maybe alcohol consumption has added to my moobs, but taking that darn pill has also negated them? 😳
