my grandfather suffering from hepatitis b,severe jaundice and diabetes
My grandfather is suffering from hepatitis b,severe jaundice and diabetes since 4 months and he is getting week day by day. Can anyone suggest me what to do.
If you live in Delhi , please visit Institute of Liver & Billary Science Delhi . you will get very good Liver specialist. This hospital is doing all research in liver related disease.
Sorry we cannot suggest anything as we are not doctors here. Your grandfather is still young and the liver is a very resilient organ. Ascites can be managed by drainage and/or injection of Albumin. It is very good that he has not lost appetite and eating. So do consult with your doctors to put him on an appropriate diet to build up his weight again. Always hope for the best.

He must see a liver doctor for his Hepatitis B, he needs to see a doctor about his diabetes also. Both conditions are treatable. There are very good oral drugs taken daily for his Hepatitis B, don't delay. Same with his diabetes.
