Britt,
Thanks for asking.Ive been having a hard time dealing w/ the weight that I put on in the hosp and since I've been out. When I was in the hosp they did a series of blood tests and 2 wks after I got out. I guess that they do 3 different ones on your liver anyway two of them were 2xs what they should be and the other one was 3xs what it should be.So after 2 wks of getting out I go to my.Drs and ask about show her my bruises on my right leg (calf). They were/ are on the front and back. I can see getting them in the front, but not the back. So she looks at them and orders more blood tests b/c the liver tests were still off the charts. So ff the nurse calls me to tell me and ask if I drink alcohol. And of course im like no. She meant Alcoholic. Then asked if i took alot of Tylenol. And again no. So ff to this Wed when I have to go and have an ultrasound on my.tummy to check on my liver. Im kinda scared what it will tell/show. It's 9:30am EST. So Everyone please think good thoughts and keep your fingers crossed.
Thank you for reading/listening
Take care and God Bless

that is so nice of you, I hope you are doing ok. rexory I bruise all the time and I don't know why. I have never ad my liver checked and I go to an ED specialist. it looks like I am a battered woman sometimes. I blame work as I lift and lug heavy boxes, I also cut easily but I know my skin is very thin. I have basically stayed at my current weight, low end of normal, but last night I weighed myself at my sisters and I was down a couple of pounds, and I was secretly happy, I allowed myself a snack of nuts. it is all so stupid and why wont and when will ED leave me alone?

Thanks for asking. Eating is going just fine for me and Im glad about that. Seems my mental problems have switched away from food and eating and concentrated in my work/job phobia. It brews up and boils over every time I have a meeting with someone from the employment services or social services. How I wish theyd just leave me in peace...

I admire all of you who hold down a job. I notice some of you have problems with work too, however. My thoughts are with all of you!
