my uncles story shocked me about liver disease. he didn't have fatty liver, but he contracted Hepatitis C a while back, which can attack the liver randomly. the doctor told him not to worry about it. but some years later, he begin to feel lethargic symptoms, bloating, weakness, and diarrhea.

this was end stage liver disease, basically incurable and a 2% chance of reversing it at that point. he became hospitalized suddenly and an infection spread to his brain. he could no longer talk, or walk. he begin to repeat stuff i would tell him, instead of responding in his own ways. he appeared as a very drunk person would appear. eyes very glossy and not the same person.

he was in this comatose state for about 10 days and then had a heart attack. by this point his ankles and feet were extremely swollen and puffy.

Taper. That is very important.
Tapering sucks because it requires self control while still drinking, and you’ll still feel pretty shitty. Sweating, WDs, DTs, etc.
After you get through that, don’t keep booze in the house, that’s a big one.
Expect anxiety.
I’ve been putting what I would normally spend on booze in a jar every other day.
I don’t know what I’ll use it for, but it helps me to physically see what I’m saving.

Liver and pancreas are working harder than they should, and secrete excess bile into your stomach. If you're drinking half a fifth or a fifth a day, from the moment you vomited bile you have maybe 2 years before you develop early stage alcoholic liver disease. You can still bounce back at this point, and at this point you have maybe a year of hard drinking before developing cirrhosis.

>t. recovering alcoholic that drank very heavily for 7 years straight.

Quit while you can before you experience terrible withdrawals and delirium tremens. Your demons will dance around you as you hallucinate, and the audial hallucinations will make you temporarily lose your mind... then the anxiety takes you.

Alcohol is a depressant, an inhibitor. After my 2 tours in AFG I lived with a lot of guilt and once i got out my mom was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. For 7 years I took care of her and watched her wither away until her final moments. I never got the chance to get over the war as the reaper still lurked around me. I kept numb with booze. In the end the purpose of life is to live it. If your first plan of action is to blow yourself during hard times, the only weak one here is you.

Exercise, even walking, helps with the anxiety. I highly recommend it when you crave booze. Even a small weight can help just work out the stress hormones that you're overly sensitive too after alcohol cessation.

Once you replace the booze with exercise, the anxiety will drop after a few weeks. Then you can start crawling into a slightly more normal life.

NALFD: fatty liver disease NOT from drinking. usually its cause... you're overweight. Really the only thing that helps is losing something like 5-10% of your weight. that will often reverse it entirely. black coffee seems to help. it can remain asymptomatic for many years and suddenly boom, your liver is fucked.

alcoholic fatty liver disease: you fucked your liver over by years of drinking. the damage is done but if you keep drinking you'll die faster lol

hepatitis/end stage liver disease: read up hepatic encephalopathy. basically all the gunk your liver breaks down goes to your brain and you become a zombie. a shell of a human being.

I have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The best way to counter it is by eating very little carbs- no bread, no potatoes, no rice, and no to some fruit. Concertedly you also need to work out; start with weights and end with hard cardio- you’ll lose a lot of weight rather quickly that way. I dropped from 180 to 140 in about 2-3 months following this strategy. The fat on my liver pretty disappeared.

I’ve been like this since I was a kid.
After I became an adult and it really started to interfere with my jobs and life (I fell asleep at the wheel after being awake for 72 hours straight).
I know it’s killing me slowly, but booze or benzodiazepines are really the only thing that help me sleep.

Dietary fructose, sucrose, or HFCS have been shown to have a special tendency to induce fatty liver in experimental animals (6, 17, 30–34), as well as inflammation (35). To develop the fatty liver, it usually takes atleast 8–24 weeks on high fructose diet with more progressive disease with longer exposure (36). Often the administration of fructose also induces other features of metabolic syndrome as well, including elevated blood pressure, elevated serum triglycerides, and insulin resistance (37). In part the fatty liver may be due to increased energy intake, as high fructose intake induces leptin resistance in rats (38, 39). However, if diet is controlled so that the control group ingests the same amount of total energy, the fructose-fed rats will still develop features of metabolic syndrome, although weight gain will not be different between groups (37, 40). Indeed, one can even induce fatty liver with a calorically restricted diet if the diet is high (40%) in sugar (41). Others have also reported that high fructose diet can induce fatty liver in the absence of weight gain (35).

there are different forms of hepatitis, but hep C is the worst one I believe. in the last 10 days of his life, he was stuck in the ICU, this was before Covid-19, but we still had to wear masks, gloves, and a sterilized jacket to hold his hand or talk to him, and if i got too close, the nurse told me i had to back away and keep my distance from him, so as to not get him sicker.

Since you brought up alcohol, Ill tell you this story about the time I was drunk as shit and wandered into the local YMCA to get some water from the fountains, free chips, condoms and other stupid free shit laying around everywhere and I took a kid into a handicap bathroom and had my way with her while she was waiting for adult swim to end so she could go back into the pool. I COULD NOT fucking stay hard. This was pre cameras 90's shit and I had a good time with those torpedo tits sticking out but god damn I couldn't stay hard or fuck.

Alcohol does that. Alcohol fucked that up. Not me. I could have scored but I didn't. Alcohol is a tricky mistress, you gotta plan and not let her take control of you. Always on your toes enough to keep you from doing bad shit.

Yep.
Got mine from Type II Diabetes.
Undiagnosed for 3 years.
I thought drinking 3 to 4 gallons if fluid a day was normal.
Thought everyone had chronic diarrhea and began and ended the day vomiting.
Finally went to the Dr, in the waiting area and passed out, woke up in the ICU 4 days later.
Had a blood glucose level of 1325, that was after a 24 fast, I went into a Diabetic Coma.
Liver is 2 times the normal size and working at 25% function, Pancreas is also swollen and hardly functioning.
6'3", 175lbs, no drugs, no alcohol, no junk food, Dr said it's genetic, only Diabetic in my family, Dr advised to take a DNA medical test, results showed 97% chance of Diabetes, also found out that I am adopted, parents child was stillborn, dead child was given to a heroin addict prostitute mother and her live baby (me) was given to my parents, my mother was a nurse at the hospital, "we decided it was best for everyone".
Currently on Insulin, $450 a month (thanks Biden) under Trump it had dropped to $30 a month.
On a transplant waiting list for a liver (full or partial) and a pancreas, not holding out a lot of hope, my blood type is odd, so probably not going to find a match.
Kidneys are now affected, other organs will quickly become compromised.
Will be 26 in September.
