Hi thanks for contacting Chat Doctor. Yes according to history you are having cirrhosis of liver with portal hypertension... You can start beta blocker Chat Doctor. . In cirrhosis liver can't produce albumin. So edema is present... Take low salt diet. If needed diuretic is helpful.... If still portal hypertension not controlled TIPS like shunt placement can be done...Meanwhile, take low fat diet. Fruits more... Avoid alcohol... Take crushed papaya seed with lemon juice one tsp daily. Grind carrot and spinach leaves juice daily... Take care
