w I drink a gallon of vodka every 5 days. I told my Dr. and could see the disgust in his face and went to some AA meetings, however my worries now are Every time I drink my stomach distends and hurts badly. yes I still drink, and had a colonoscopy due to severe constipation and Doc said everything looked ok. my liver hurts and get Charlie like horses a lot in my entire abdomen.I ve gained about 25 lbs. Im getting an ultrasound of entire abdomen next month. Will it show any type of liver damage?Do you have an assumption of a disease or what may be wrong with my insides at this point. I Diet and never lose weight, and when I don t drink for a couple of days I gain weight while dieting.
Hi thanks for asking question. I can understand your concern. First because of regular alcohol Chat Doctor. Ultrasound examination will be helpful for that. For hepatitis detection you can estimate your Sept and got enzymes. As history provided by you your ultrasound may reveal fluid accumulation in peritoneal cavity. Diuretic taken for it with low salt. Second you might have functional bowel disease by alcohol. To relieve constipation you can take stool softener along with digestive enzyme tablets. Take fiber more like in wheat bran, whole grain, carrot etc.
