PM FAO Doodab's liver

[sasguru]

Actually it turns out my liver is fairly ok. Something is ****ed though, just waiting to find out what...

Hope it's all Ok ...

[stek]

Not really. I've worked with disease data and its amazing how resilient the liver is.

Your right of course.

But to counteract that slightly with no empirical evidence, when a much younger man there was one amongst us drank like the proverbial fish, and was only beer, cider, etc - no wine or spirits, but he did knock a fair bit back.

A good friend of my brother, who sadly is still knocking back litres of cider daily, one time aforesaid drinker had a liver check etc and was pronounced fine, A1, all ok, sort of gave my brother a pass to carry on with the cider, said friend dead not shortly after, guess the liver can only do so much, A1 one day, no function the next.

Sad since my brother continues with drinking cider all day every day, but then again, some livers can take it, some can't I assume...

Well I am definitely off the booze after this.

Well I am definitely off the booze after this.

What's the verdict?

Do you look like a Simpsons character?

[doodab]

What's the verdict?

It's not my liver. Further investigation required, but that's for tomorrow. Tonight I have proper painkillers at least.

No but I burp like Barney

Gaviscon usually does the trick. Not trivialising, and apologies for the Simpsons crack I thought you were making a fuss.

Hope it's nothing too nefarious bud

Do they have no clue? How do you know it's drink related? Could just be a humble ulcer?

[aardvark]

Do share your symptoms. Plenty of medical experts on CUK to offer their collective wisdom.

Hope it turns out OK <- manly
