I was an alcoholic for over 25 years. Got to a point where I hit rock bottom. I got up to 225 lbs (At 5’9) which is ridiculously overweight. Felt like crap all the time and my doctor said my liver was taking a beating. I have been sober for 6 years and been on a consistent diet and training schedule for the last 5 years. I’m down to 145 LBS, feel amazing, and my same doctor was astounded at how healthy I am now. The liver does regenerate but most people push the envelope to the point of no return.
I’ve been so good to my body. Due to toxic medications 1992 for 20 years I lost my liver (GI bleed and cancer twice, liver transplant 2013). So many things hurt my body so much. 2019 found out I should have never been taking those meds but they are still forcing me. Please people, love you body and do whatever you can to keep the toxics out.
I wanted to donate half my liver to my dying sister but she wasn’t a candidate because she only had a month off booze. Bullshit our country does that. She died the most torturous death you could ever ever imagine. I’m 3 years clean and my liver is perfect. Go figure because I drank way more than my sister ever did. Rest in love Shannon Rey Ramsey!!!
@@KennyAce even if he cannot articulate it address pain and anxiety with a physician. I know my sister and even though my sister couldn’t speak anymore I knew she Was panicking inside. They are still in there so tbh I’d treat for pain and anxiety no matter what in this case. It’s not an easy way to go unfortunately and I’m very sorry you saw my comment. I didn’t mean to scare you. I’m broken but relieved my brother and sister are at peace and waiting for me on the other side.
@@matthewramsey5239 My father passed away 7 days ago. He was on the pain meds until death. Alc is a hella of a drug that destroys the body harshly… i just hope he’s enjoying eternity well… he wasn’t a saved man, if by any means yk what i mean. He got saved last minute and died soon after.
I took care of my brother while he was on hospice me and my mom and other brother I feel really bad tho because they say they can whatever they want and I just wanted him to get better but the one thing he wanted was alcohol and we didn't and I really wished we did and the day he passed I remember everything like it was yesterday it's been a year and a few months since he left us my younger brother as well got sick at the same time as my other brother the doctors only gave him 2 months and he's still alive and sober today and Im so glad ❤
Im 42 and been a drinker since around 20 years old. On average id drink 2-4 days a week with a ocassional week off here and there. Id drink 18-30 beers or 3/4 of a 1.75 liter of vodka in a day myself. Last 6 months i been having soreness and pain in my right side rib area that travels to my mid back. Went to hospital and had blood & urine test done along with a xray but they found nothing. I been struggling to stop my drinking. Longest i went was 7 weeks sober. I drank a few times since this pain started but currently now back on the sober wagon. Its been 6 days without alcohol. But i still have these pains and soreness. Only other problem i have is tiredness. Usually ill nap once or twice a day
@@tomlyon3273 I went to two hospitals. One did X-ray blood and urine test. The other did cat scan blood and urine test. Nothing found and was told everything looks good
@@AW-jy4bt I went to another hospital. They did cat scan blood and urine tests. Found nothing. Said it could be a muscle. I changed the way I sleep and lay in bed and it's been almost 2 months with no pain at all
I’m 23 years old and I been drinking twisted teas and tequila and whiskey almost everyday for a year and I think my liver is hard. Not I’m not sure if it’s the bone below my ribcage or the liver 😂 but I get a pain like I got punched hard in the stomach, and I’ll feel it in my upper back too. Sometimes
@@kyroplx9641that's probably not good brother give it a rest for a bit I stopped and got sober I have a drink every week but not daily anymore. Just found out to a buddy of ours is in the hospital his liver gave out few days ago
My dad had cancer and the doctor told him he needed to cut back in drinking. He probably could have been diagnosed sooner had the doctor ran other labs after my dad said he didn't drink. This is also why family members should be allowed on doc visits. Get someone who listens to you, a lot of docs don't and you can't always get recommendations to the best doctors.
My cousin has been on a donor list for years for a liver and now I just heard he doesn’t have much time left and I’m sad about it it’s hard when you get news like that
That is very good and comforting to know! It dint mean carry on with abusing it. Just means the sooner you give it a break the sooner it can do it’s job and has the ability to recover from abuse faster than you think! But ONLY if you stop and let it do it’s job properly without the things that could kill it once and for all.
Same I drank straight vodka since like 2015.. got real bad the past couple years I switched to 60's.. one time I finished 3 60's in like 4 days.. I'm slowly getting off alcohol though cause I care more for my kids, and my health. If you die from alcohol it's a form of suicide, and in God's eyes suicides only go one way.. and that's down. From what I hear anyways and I'm Christian, well.. brought up from believers anyways.. And also I'm starting not to like the feeling anymore the hangovers especially. But when I start drinking I don't like the feeling of falling over, or making bad decisions, or just making me sleep right away.. think about the good things in life. Sober wise, like being able to go for walks, going to the fair, going to the cities activities they got going on, going out to eat good food, meeting new people and interacting with outdoor things, seeing families have a good time and them seeing you and waving and smiling, but to enjoy these things soberly. If your drunk these people wills see it and downgrade you, or judge you, trust me doing it sober is soooo much better. Even s*x, or watching a movie with your gf/bf.. you can't watch movies drunk right? Sober is better feeling doing these things. And than going to bed sober feeling safe, not dizzy, sick and tired and feeling your body deteriorating.. we are only human and we want to live as long as we can. Life is long but it's also short. Enjoy it, God made you for a reason.. embrace it be grateful. Get out there and do what you need to do.. live.. laugh.. and most importantly LOVE! 😊❤️🙏🙏 hope this helps. Cause me too I'm struggling but I'm slowly quitting 🙂
@@germandelariva3754not eating for a long period of time. Some people fast for like 12 hours and eat 1 meal a day and some even don't eat for like 2 days. Make sure you ease into fasting before you go a few days w/o eating because it's really hard
A close friend of mine who's dad got transmitted to the hospital and has cirrhosis due to years of acholol abuse and is beyond repair. Looking to find some supplements or remedies for him to help cleanse and detox the liver.
Lemon water, black coffee, fresh veggies of all colors, raw and slightly cooked maybe using only healthy oils, no cheap oils, only avocado, coconut, olive oil, walnut oil, no shortening, real butter, real low fat cheeses, try drinking plenty of water daily, listen to doctors online who teach you healthy stuff on the liver. I hope your friend is still ok.
Im almost 100 days sober, just turned 25, i was drinking a lot for a few years, my liver feels like its inflamed/pressured sometimes, has anyone had the same thing?
I feel that too, sometimes I feel it pressing against my side as if it’s inflamed. I’ve been trying to cut back on alcohol, sugar and get back to running and weights but it’s really hard to get rid of my side fat. I became “skinny fat” due to hard liquor during pandemic. I only weight 128 but have a distended belly it’s kind of embarrassing. I may have to go full keto to try and get back to my normal self. I feel gross and fatigued
@AddictionSucks1988 I’m sorry for my late reply… I have been trying to distract myself from alcohol by working but I still feel the temptation and I haven’t made much progress. That is a really distressing sign. Have you got health insurance? If you have insurance I would suggest seeing a doctor as soon as possible as jaundice is a huge red flag
🙏 Lord I’ve been here. The more I focused on quitting, the less it seemed to help. My breakthrough came from shifting my focus to fixing what caused me to drink in the first place. I found comfort in darkness and alcohol was there to celebrate with me. It can take tons of pushing back against whatever “It” is but ultimately turns into your strength. Your on the right track.
@travishammond9101 thank you. I'm just seeing this comment. Still drinking but down to a 6 pack 4 or 5 days of the week. Need to quit completely. Got too much to live for. Thank you again.
I was told yesterday that I have severe scarred liver ...it's been very hard to keep it together because I've never done drugs in my life or smoked cigarettes or even drank in my life I've been going threw lots of labs and now I have to go in and get checked why it's very scarred I'm worried to find out why
I am scared my liver might be scarred aswell I will have further tests soon I did drink a lot of alcohol last year but my ALT and AST came back normal. It's a scary diagnosis but keep at it with the treatments and try doing the things you like,hobbies ,etc Spend a lot of time with family and don't wallow in self-despair.It will only worsen your situation if you do. I know my comment might be useless but I hope it helps alleviate your fear if only a bit.
@@RMike-xq1cm thank you I appreciate it so far what I have learned is my ALT was normal but my AST was a Lil high tomorrow morning there doing a liver biopsy they will be taking a sample to see how bad my liver is I'm just still shocked I don't understand how these things can happen I know w tike things like this can happen but I figured atleast when I'm 60 or older but I appreciate your comment hopefully everything turns out well for you
Unfortunately mine is beyond repair and never drank or did drugs. I just drew the short straw in the genetic lottery. If I had done those things, I’d probably be dead now.
@SPL0869 I try to not go if I know there's going to be a lot of beer , wine, etc, laying around. Just don't want to be bother with people handing me beer, wine, and or having to explain why I don't. Plus the cans, bottles, cups laying around, the odor, etc. Kinda like you're being watched, tested
Your liver might heal but your Pancreas won't, my uncle had problems with that when he was younger and so he stopped drinking too much, when his wife passed from cancer he lost all hope and went back to drink heavily until his pancreas was basically mashed potatoes and he died as well
Reading all these comments and it's all about alcohol. Do people realize that there are hundreds of medications out their that can cause major liver damage in YOUNG ADULTS such as BIRTH CONTROL PILLS. I know they don't like to bring up medications that cause major side effects or death.
I was a super heavy drinker and stopped 3 months ago! I’ve felt much better but had some skin issues since then that I hadn’t had before. Does anyone know if maybe my body is working so hard to repair the alcohol damage that it may be causing other issues with other systems? Thank you 🙏 Anyone else had similar issues?
Your body could be in detox mode. All of the toxins are leaving you through your pores. Just keep drinking water and eat clean! Also exercise. Overtime your skin will be so pretty. I went through the same thing
My liver could be a great reference point for damage after x years of drinking- because the amount and type of alcohol I’ve consumed on a daily basis has been extremely consistent since age 21. I know it would technically just be a case study, but I’d be curious how I stack up to a fellow 28 year old female who (instead of my loyalty to corona) drank hard liquor or red wine consistently since age 21.
It depends first off , because there way to many medications that cause liver damage also in young adults such as Birth Control Pills. Alcohol is always the first to come up because Doctors don't want to jeopardize medications and how people would react to them if prescribed to them. It's a business !!
Ironically I do not grind alcohol in great quantities, only a glass of red wine when I go out for a nice dinner. However, I was diagnosed with non alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver! Now what?
That could be due to various reasons. High iron storage known as haemochromatosis, you can get tested to rule it out. High carbohydrates in the diet over many years. Certain medications especially higher use of acetaminophen. Genetic disorders. You should be referred to a liver / hepatic specialist.
what about 1cm scar on liver 🤔 I know a person who had the weakest strain of hep c ,there's 6 strains of that disease, but they were very fortunate to get a medication 💊 that got rid of hep c and now they have annuities to hep c but the person still uses recreational drugs once a week. how long will they live
I wonder what could have become of me if you weren't the one who came to an interval in my life. Thank you for curing my Hepatitis B naturally Doctor Igudia. I immensely appreciate you.
I'm not an alcoholic I am having however dull intermittent pain in my liver I have a heating pad with a castor oil compress over it at the moment can you tell me what is going on with it?
Your liver is enlarged. I have the same thing atm, can get quiet painful. I also get cottonmouth in my sleep alot. Best thing you can do is get your blood work done and an ultrasound, it's scary but you won't regret it. Hope this help mate
My liver is inflamed and causing pain. No other symptoms except stool is lighter than normal. I see my doctor in 2 days. Right now I'm drinking lightly cooked pureed broccoli, brussel sprouts, beets, tomatoes, cauliflower with ginger, garlic, turmeric, olive oil, pepper. Also, milk thistle with dandelion tea, grapefruit and enough water. Anything else? Please advise. A little scared. No excercise because of back injury, 5'8" 178 lbs. Just stopped all sugar, but might be too late!
@@Kevin_Yagoonie Thanks for asking. Pain has disappeared and considering doing that flush. Heard good and not so good things about it. Doctor really didn't say much just let her know when and she would do it. No info on procedure except it's her favorite surgery to do!? The ultrasound's radiologist stated to many to count along with sludge? Thought it would have been nice if surgeon gave me more info on procedure and any alternatives since I didn't know what questions to ask. Happened so quickly didn't have time to reseach before seeing her.
I need help too I can't stop drinking either I feel like I'm at my last I'm having sleep paralysis now it feels horrible 😫 I drink because I have trouble sleeping
What have you ACTUALLY tried to stop drinking? AA? Rehab? Telling friends and family? starting another plan? Rigorous exercise? Or even just not keeping booze in your house?
Most doctors in the U.S. wear lab coats, at least while they are seeing patients. Often their name and title is embroidered on it. Interestingly, at teaching hospitals the length of the lab coat can differentiate where they are in their training. 🤗 Your fun fact of the day. 🎉

My liver could be a great reference point for damage after x years of drinking- because the amount and type of alcohol I’ve consumed on a daily basis has been extremely consistent since age 21. I know it would technically just be a case study, but I’d be curious how I stack up to a fellow 28 year old female who (instead of my loyalty to corona) drank hard liquor or red wine consistently since age 21.
Seven years is not very long.
I need help
What’s classed as heavy drinking
It depends first off , because there way to many medications that cause liver damage also in young adults such as Birth Control Pills. Alcohol is always the first to come up because Doctors don't want to jeopardize medications and how people would react to them if prescribed to them. It's a business !!
Ironically I do not grind alcohol in great quantities, only a glass of red wine when I go out for a nice dinner. However, I was diagnosed with non alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver! Now what?
That could be due to various reasons. High iron storage known as haemochromatosis, you can get tested to rule it out. High carbohydrates in the diet over many years. Certain medications especially higher use of acetaminophen. Genetic disorders. You should be referred to a liver / hepatic specialist.

what about 1cm scar on liver 🤔 I know a person who had the weakest strain of hep c ,there's 6 strains of that disease, but they were very fortunate to get a medication 💊 that got rid of hep c and now they have annuities to hep c but the person still uses recreational drugs once a week. how long will they live
Not all medications labeled the same are manufactured the same.
I wonder what could have become of me if you weren't the one who came to an interval in my life. Thank you for curing my Hepatitis B naturally Doctor Igudia. I immensely appreciate you.
Ughh this helped my stress lol I thought yo liver was done for after u fuck it up
I'm not an alcoholic I am having however dull intermittent pain in my liver I have a heating pad with a castor oil compress over it at the moment can you tell me what is going on with it?
Your liver is enlarged. I have the same thing atm, can get quiet painful. I also get cottonmouth in my sleep alot. Best thing you can do is get your blood work done and an ultrasound, it's scary but you won't regret it.
Hope this help mate
i am really struggling with drinking...im in maumee ohio with no doctor or healthcare....help me please
How old are you and how long drinking
My liver is inflamed and causing pain. No other symptoms except stool is lighter than normal. I see my doctor in 2 days. Right now I'm drinking lightly cooked pureed broccoli, brussel sprouts, beets, tomatoes, cauliflower with ginger, garlic, turmeric, olive oil, pepper. Also, milk thistle with dandelion tea, grapefruit and enough water. Anything else? Please advise. A little scared. No excercise because of back injury, 5'8" 178 lbs. Just stopped all sugar, but might be too late!
How did your doctor appointment go? Are you still drinking? How do you feel?
@@Kevin_Yagoonie Thanks for asking. Pain has disappeared and considering doing that flush. Heard good and not so good things about it. Doctor really didn't say much just let her know when and she would do it. No info on procedure except it's her favorite surgery to do!? The ultrasound's radiologist stated to many to count along with sludge? Thought it would have been nice if surgeon gave me more info on procedure and any alternatives since I didn't know what questions to ask. Happened so quickly didn't have time to reseach before seeing her.

What have you ACTUALLY tried to stop drinking? AA? Rehab? Telling friends and family? starting another plan? Rigorous exercise? Or even just not keeping booze in your house?
Actually in reality drinking doesn’t help you have a good night’s sleep.

Why do American doctors dress like lab technicians?
Most doctors in the U.S. wear lab coats, at least while they are seeing patients. Often their name and title is embroidered on it. Interestingly, at teaching hospitals the length of the lab coat can differentiate where they are in their training. 🤗 Your fun fact of the day. 🎉
