I'm glad to hear you're seeing your Dr Tuesday. I think pets do pick up on things. Your cat could be feeling that you're depressed and you need her by your side.
And I know something wrong cause I have a CAT that has been by my side for over 2 weeks won't leave my side she senses something wrong if she good only talk...
Yrs good family doctor.. I go tues plus I see my therapist every two weeks now cause of what I said... I told my therapist I want them all to fall n ditch n die n see them suffer like I did
It sounds like your family Dr is on your side and that's a good thing. Is he willing to help you find a good specialist?
No wonder you're so depressed. You have no answers as to what's going on.
So I just sleep more now...sleep like 14 hrs a day..don't want to be awake! I no I am depressed...But just can't go thru this again....

The attending pathologist named above attests that he/she has personally reviewed the relevant preparation(s) for the specimen(s) and rendered the final diagnosis.
Gross Description The specimen is received in formalin labeled with the patient's name "Denise Moore" and "liver biopsy". It consists of two soft tan-white tissue cores measuring 1.1 and 1.4 cm in length and averaging 0.1 cm in diameter. Totally submitted in one cassette. ER/sj
Microscopic Description This biopsy shows fragments of liver parenchyma with small amounts of dense fibrosis within the portal tracts. There is a mild lymphocytic infiltrate within the portal tracts but plasma cells are rare. There is no significant decrease in bile ductules. No granulomas are identified. There is minimal interface activity and minimal lobular necroinflammatory activity. The findings, although quite non-specific, argue against autoimmune hepatitis and raise the possibility of of primary sclerosing cholangitis, although the classic onion-skinning seen in that entity is not identified. The presence of portal fibrosis is confirmed by a trichrome stain. A reticulin stain shows no evidence of nodule formation. A PAS stain with diastase pretreatment shows no evidence of alpha-1 antitrypsin globules. An iron stain shows no increase in iron stores.
My liver biopsy came back abnormal..I got a diagnosed from the liver biopsy..In the meantime I am walking around with a enlarged liver n he said nothing to worry about he is definitely wrong that's what they all Saud n left to me die I lost 61 pounds from being sick and they say nothing to worry about my family doc told me all 3 docs have been d*ckng u around.. well I know that..
Yes, I would like to know that too. If you have an enlarged liver and spleen there has to be a reason. Have you been to see specialists or just GP's?
Hey
I'm a bit confused - So they have said you have an enlarged liver and spleen but they don't know what to do with it?
Or is it that they think you shouldn't do anything right now?
What information have u got so far?
No answer they say nothing to worry about that's what they all say n leave me to die yes enlarged liver and spleen..abnormal liver biosy...you have no clue..I just can't go thru another doctor's soon there won't be any left lol just saying... I may say lol but its true..I learn by mistakes 3rd doc give him 3 visits and 3 strikes ur out...I am walking around with enlarge spleen n liver he says go to ur family dic I thought he was suppose to help me...just feel like Noone wants to help me...like lost cause I am....
No, I do not believe you are doomed. Please don't give up. If there's something wrong you need to keep trying to find out what's going on. You mentioned an enlarged spleen. No Dr has been able to give you an answers yet? Keep going to Drs until you find one that does give you an answer.
I think going to the stores to get free stuff does keep your mind occupied. I use coupons and it takes up a lot of my time. I do it to save on groceries and things we truly need though.
There's hope for you so hang in there. We're always here to listen and help anyway we can.
