Thank you all my dear Cute family. I’m still in Wyong Hospital, 11 days now and I’m a lovely shade of yellow, though not contagious.
I’ve been poked n probed, CT scanned Ultrasounded, MRI’d and blood tested to the point of having only one usable vein left in my good arm, so they inserted a PICC line that they can access directly without more needles.
Finally the MRI showed I have Cirrhosis of the Liver!!! I don’t even drink!
There is a list of normal causes, starting with alcohol abuse and Hepatitis C but, so far, all the tests, to find the cause, have drawn a blank!
They have started looking into obscure causes now and until they find what has caused it, they can’t start me on any treatments.
So here I sit, churning everything over and over in my mind and still feeling ill, as I have done for many, many months now.
I’m angry and I want answers but mostly I would like to feel well again.
Hugs n roses to all Meganne
I am guessing they have checked your blood sugar?
Thinking of you try to stay positive and enjoy being waited on.
Take care , hugs send. linda
God's blessings on all who are working to find the answers.

I apologise I’m too exhausted to reply individually even sitting up is a massive strain on me just now.
They took more bloods for testing last night and they will take another lot tomorrow ( Tuesday), if nothing shows up they will do a liver biopsy.
There are hundreds of possible causes besides the commonly known ones, so they investigating the obscure causes.
Thank you all so much, knowing my Cute family is praying for me brings me more comfort and strength than I can ever express.
I'm going down to see her finally on Friday. I've just been so busy with family commitments. I can't wait to see her and she knows how many of you are praying for her healing. Love Chris
I rang Ray today and they are still awaiting results from her Biopsy yesterday. I hate having to wait for answers, so I can imagine how frustrating Meg must be feeling! Love Chris
I refused the third dose as, in my mind, it was more than a coincidence.
Sure enough, when I investigated the ingredients I found it was Lactose and Fructose based!!!!
What don't they understand about being allergic to milk, and milk products, sugar and all sugar derivatives including natural sugar???
Anyway, I managed to fall asleep, through total exhaustion, and woke up several hours later with controllable pain.
Now it's a waiting game, waiting for answers, so they sent me home to wait in the comfort, love and security of home. The only thing they have found, so far is that some time in the last six months I have contracted Glandular Fever, which, though I may not have had any symptoms, I have definitely been suffering the after effects of exhaustion, lethargy, lack of desire even inability, to drag myself out of bed to do the simplest of life's tasks.
I'm on a high Protein, low salt diet, 6 small meals a day, starting as soon as I open my eyes and ending the last thing before bed at night. I'm so full I have to force the protein down, and I'm so yellow my Iphone won't recognise me. Gotta have a laugh at that... :-)
Hugs and roses to all, love , M
Life can be so cruel as we get older, I hope it will turn around and be kinder and more gentle with us all.
Love you dear friend, huge hugs xxxxx Meg
