Recompensated Liver
I have AMAZING news to share!! As of yesterday-my final appts, my day to get put on the dual transplant list-I now need a liver and a kidney-transplant list. I went to my appt, and all my labs were SOO good that they officially closed my case (for now) and I no longer need either transplant right away!! I still have the Stage 4 Cirrhosis and CKD at 3B, but the labs are going in the right direction!! And my MELD score dropped all the way to an 11!!! I just had to share this with you!! This has been 2 years of busting my butt to get to this point-from "you have 2 years to live" to "you now need a liver AND a kidney" to "you do not have to be put on the transplant list at this time". If anyone has ANY questions, please ask. This site has been a lifesaver for me and I have met some wonderful people here, who helped me and answered my qts as well. Quick note: 57 yrs old, drinking was the cause. 2 years cold-turkey.
