third large volume tap removing acites

[Gdaugther]

My dad had his third acites removal and he is back just like a ballon
again.His urine has a almost color of powersteering fluid.
when he pees in the snow.He is complaining of rigth sided rib pain and
I was wondering if the liver or spleen is hurting because it's failing.
or did he break a rib bending forward?
Is it a symtom of accute liver falior?

Once patients become refractory to routine medical
therapy, 50% die within 6 months.

he has done considerable damage over the years.....sometimes it can be irreparable but time will tell only if he stops the drinking....he will have many health problems still if he quits the drinking.how old is he?

Yes he is a daily drinker that is why I posted in the alcoholism forum he has not been abstinent from alcohol for the last 20 years he first got jaundice 3 years ago but laxatives
seems to have helped out clearing it up however all the diurectics he is taking is not working
they never do when people drink I have done some reading and posted before I just wonder if this is the very end of ELD or ESLD If I dared to ask him I Would but he has not let me get acess to his medical records so I do not even know his levels he had his first acites removal almost 2 years ago
