I have had 9 blood transfusions and more hospital stays than I care for. With all that should my body still be in such chronic pain!
Hi! Good morning. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. If I were your doctor, I would also assess your pancreatic function with serum amylase and lipase and a CT scan of the abdomen if need be. I would also advise you not to eat any food from outside if you do as intestinal infections could creep in from outside and give rise to such cramps and vomiting. If yours was an alcoholic cirrhosis, I hope you might have kept total abstinence from alcoholic beverages by now. As such due to the dietary restrictions in your condition, there could be electrolyte disturbances and low concentrations of micro nutrients in your body which might be responsible for your aches everywhere. So, you would be required to go for some multi vitamins on consultation with your doctor. Further management would depend on the reports of investigation and clinical assessment. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Chat Doctor
