"Did you know that about 1 in 400 adults in the United States has cirrhosis? According to the National Institutes of Health, "cirrhosis is even more common in adults ages 45 to 54. About 1 in 200 adults ages 45 to 54 in the United States has cirrhosis. Researchers believe the actual numbers may be higher because many people with cirrhosis are not diagnosed." At the ALF, we know Living with Cirrhosis is not easy. Join us to learn more about Living with Cirrhosis with Dr. Stephen Zucker of Brigham and Women's Hospital."

I found this video about 4 months ago, and it GREATLY helped me understand my disease. This is from the American Liver Foundation, a reputable source. If I didn't love my GI, I'd be seeking out Dr. Zucker.
One of my Cirrhosis FB support groups just posted it, and reminded me how good it is.
It's long, but if you are so inclined it really explains what's happening to me if you're interested.
Love, Sue
