Cirrhosis?
My 52 yo husband just stopped drinking 3 months ago after his second round of medical detox. He’s convinced he’s not got cirrhosis because he’s stopped drinking. He won’t go to the doctor but has diarrhea at least once daily and lost about 60 pounds in the months before he quit drinking - maybe 10 more afterward. In detox the last time they told him he had mild pancreatitis. The didn’t treat him there for it. He has itchy skin and hardly sleeps. He eats so much sugar like powdered donuts, candy bars, ice cream etc. Even with the weight loss he has a belly. He won’t go to a doctor except he wants to see a psych to see if he has ADHD because he has racing thoughts. He goes to the gym every day and says he feels fine but less coordinated than usual. He also has really bad shoulder pain sometimes. Are these not all signed of liver damage? Has anyone here had to convince someone to see a Dr for this? Before he quit drinking he drank 10-24 shots of vodka daily for at least 8 years, probably more before we met.
