I was here, it took 4 nurses and IV nurses to find a place for an IV.

The places kept blowing. Then I got more plasma and platelets. Then

the next day I got 3 litres of fluid out of my body. Then they started

me on Lactolose. They had to give me two doses and it didn't do

anything but give me gas that made miserable. They had to give me gas

drops so I wouldn't be so miserable. They said I should be able to go

home today, because all my other labs are steady, but they had poop

samples tested and it turned out there's blood in it. Today I had an

upper endoscopy and they found some large veins so they tied them off

with rubber bands. Tomorrow they are doing a colonoscopy. The

hepatologist said earlier today that because of all this I've moved to

the #1 position on the list for O+ livers, so the next O+ liver that

comes in and matches is mine. My husband will update on here when I'm

not able to.
