My husband has Cirrhosis and Oesophageal Varices. Two days ago he suffered a massive haemorrhage from the varices. They have been banded, doctor says the varices are huge. Next week they wish to band them again. How reliable is this treatment in proventing further bleeding. I am very worried about more bleeds. Thank you.
HIT hank for the choosing ChatDoctorI really understand you worry, but this is the only method by which immediate bleeding can be stopped, what ever other method are there they all are surgical procedures, infiltrate the bleeder with almond oil is older method, now the bleeder can be sealed with, \"Cynoacrylate\" with special device, but more or less all are giving the same results, take care of your husband, bye.
