MY mother is 65year she is aliver patient 2year agoBut the doctor is saying today mother is liver tips operation problem so I want to-know how much liver tips operation estimate

Female | 40

A liver transplant is likely the only solution that may help your mother. It is caused when the liver of a person is quite ill, and that doesn't work properly. Symptoms that a liver is not working properly are the following: patients get worn out, have yellow skin or eyes, and also experience tummy pain. The treatment is costly and involves a lot of expenditures due to its magnitude. The doctor needs to see how much the liver is damaged and if the transplantation has become a necessity.

Transfer of liver problem

Male | 50

Liver problems can show up with symptoms like fatigue, jaundice (yellow skin), abdominal discomfort, and changes in appetite. At the same time, these conditions came as a result of overuse of alcohol, infections caused by viruses, or disorders of metabolism. It is very important to discern what place is wrong for the treatment to be effective. The possible remedies may entail a new lifestyle, drugs, or specific therapies that are pivotal to your case. I suggest that you consult with a healthcare provider who can perform a complete assessment and guide you based on your individual needs.

As per my understanding the patient is having chronic liver disease, and needs liver transplant. Liver transplant should not be an issue. You need to get listed for donor's list. There is an entire protocol to match with donor. Patient's fitness will be decided by specialist. Please connect with Liver Transplant in India,

Can i take liver syrup with plant protein

Male | 27

The liver syrup is so not good for your liver, it's grueling to eat a vegetable-high protein bar together with it. There is no particular interaction between liver syrup and plant-based protein, so, in most cases, it is safe to take them together. The liver syrup usually provides liver support, but the plant protein contains the essential nutrients. Also, the responses of the people are different. You could remedy your issues by consuming smaller amounts or taking them at other times when you feel digestive system hassle or tiredness that you don't know the reason for. Your health and safety should always come first; you can go a step further and book an appointment with your doctor for personal guidance if you are still unsure.
