@cirrhosisjoe: Cirrhosis can cause esophageal varices from portal hypertension. If they rupture, it can lead to life-threatening bleeding. #cirrhosis #liverfailure #varices #liverdisease #hepatology
I’m thankful I had to quit smoking weed, but that’s OK

I have Cirrhosis and I have both. It's very dangerous and scary. I would have never believed there'd be so many complications from having LIVER Disease. Joe you are so knowledgeable and I appreciate all the great information you provide. I have followed you for a long time. Keep up the great work Joe! 💚

That’s how I found out I had chronic cirrhosis with hep c. They said I had it active for 4 decades now have to get an endoscopy every 4 months. They had to band mine

My dad is in end stage cirrhosis. He isn’t eligible for a transplant. It’s hard to see him decline. He went from a MELD of 10 in January to 29 last week along with stage 3 kidney disease.

So far mine are small and don’t require banding but it is worrisome that they could grow and burst at any time.

I had this happen to me and it was really a super scary! Went to the ER. They stopped the bleeding the next morning he banded seven varecies. I’ve had six more endoscopies over the last two years. My last one was in January and I didn’t need any more banding. Two months sober today.🥳

Yep, I did that for the first three years on and off after I was diagnosed with cirrhosis I’ve been banned 20 times now I struggle to eat certain foods because it gets lodged. Please listen to this ma’am. Do not get cirrhosis. Listen to him take them serious. I’ve been sober almost 10 years and I’m 46.
