Best Answer
I will assume that you are already praying for her. Otherwise as long as your friend is hospitalized and is under the care of a hepatologist, then she is in the best environment possible. And unfortunately there is very little more that you can do. I am so sorry, as you are very obviously concerned - and justifiably so. Hopefully she can stablize. Has liver transplantation been discussed? It sounds as though a new liver may be her only hope for cure, but do please keep us advised..
The different transplant centers have varying requirements and contraindications for transplant. Some 'cap' at age 65, others 'cap' at age 70....it all depends on the center's policy. And of course (especially in older patients) the potential recipient's general overall health is taken into consideration. It is a major surgery - and the person needs to be healthy enough to survive it!
Hi doctor ever said that liver tranplantation cannot be done as her age is too old for her. And with this condition right now, is it still possible?
and her doctor handling her is a hepatology from Jatinegara Premiere hospital. and her Blood pressure right now is 90/37. please i need your suggestions on what to do
Thankyou for the respond. she is in the hospital, her doctor said her liver is no more functioning. is there a cure for this liver cirhossis disease that could really save her life right now?
I am very sorry to hear about your friend. This is a terrible situation.
