Well it's been a while since i did a proper update. This year has flown by and has been a emotional rollercoaster. I don't understand how i got to this state. Fortunately i have been blessed again with such a great team of support. Holly, my therapist has been a godsend, Abid, my consultant and Jo,one of the transplant co-ordinators have both been very supportive and understanding. Although my liver numbers and health has been stable throughout the year except for the minor hiccup earlier in the summer i'm still struggling with my feelings and the change in lifestyle.
Since i was discharged in July the pain had stopped and i was feeling great health and energy wise as it is the first time in 3 years that i have actually been pain free and not having to take painkillers everyday felt so good. However, the past month the pain has suddenly come back but they don't know what is causing it again as my bloods are normal and x-ray was okay although it did show that i was very constipated and bunged up which could be the reason.
Holly, if you ever read this oneday i hope you know that i am so grateful for EVERYTHING. Like i've always said you're the BEST therapist i've ever had. If it weren't for you i think i would be in the nut house by now.
Abid and Jo, thanks for your continued support. It's very much appreciatted and i know that with your help i can get through all this.
At present i'm so thankful that all my tests are NORMAL and it's been a good year in terms of not being an inpatient. I stilll have the usual symptoms of itching, pain, fatigue and my osteoatheritis but i guess those things will never really go away.Hoping for many more healthy years ahead.
