liver ultrasound

[the art of war]

You're "ok" for now...Keep it there...

I'll tell it to stay there for now. I'm sure it will obey :(

Click on that link bro under my sig...It will tell you everything you need to know....I have to run now and I'll be back on later tonight...That site is great...:)

I'm looking at the site - BILIRUBIN, TOTAL

A by-product of the breakdown of red blood cells in the liver, bilirubin is a good indication of the liver’s function. Excreted into the bile, bilirubin gives the bile its pigmentation. Elevated in liver disease, mononucleosis, hemolytic anaemia, low levels of exposure to the sun, and toxic effects to some drugs, decreased levels are seen in people with an inefficient liver, excessive fat digestion, and possibly a diet low in nitrogen bearing foods.

Normal Adult Range 0 - 1.3 mg/dl
Optimal Adult Reading: .65

- my bloodwork doesn't have BILIRUBIN it has like tbil, ibil etc...

thx for the response bro - the only thing low was my iron and that wasn't bad either - I could scan the bloodwork tomorrow - maybe you could have a look at it when you have more time?



seriously bro - I have had some fucked up things in my life - it's left me kinda fucked in the head - I don't mind it and I can control it almost all the time - but I won't leave my house unless it's my best friend or doctor at this point, I almost got locked up mountain biking this morning, I just have no tolerance to people that bother me. It's childish - but it's part of a fucked up background - the thing is I enjoy being like this so I don't need anything else instigating me (like the liver in this case).

Locked up like arrested? Did something like this happen?

some bitch on her cell phone almost rode me over running a red light and she phoned the police and they made a big deal of me disturbing the peace and disorderly because I said some things to her, it was just stupid bro. If she hadn't been on the cell phone (which u know is illegal in MA) and the light wasn't red and tons of ppl around I would've ended up on the wrong end of it.

(which u know is illegal in MA)

I didn't know it was illegal lol

Yea you can't say too harsh of things to Liberals they are a bunch of softies, You call you neighbor a fat old c*nt once and jeez it is like pandemonium.

All joking aside, have you thought about a getting a second or third opinion
for your problems.

Maybe I missed this but when did all this liver problems start happening? Did you get jaundice or anything I do not know symptoms of liver problems just trying to educate myself

yeah I called her a cunt, bad move.

I've gotten 3 opinions now - all lead to these referrals because nobody knows wtf is going on. So I am waiting for the date for that shit. This started about 6-7 weeks ago bro, no jaundice.

Very strange how it started outta nowhere, but I guess everything has to start at some point.

Wow. You're a great American. This nation owes you a huge debt. Now shut the fuck up and let me do my job! , I meant it as things develop out of nothing, there is always a starting point for everything. I was referring to this could have been there earlier , but it showed itself 7 weeks ago.Maybe take a lok back then and see what was different, and not just the obvious.

In regards to it being earlier - about 4-5 months ago I had a bloodwork drawn at my outpatient clinic I was still on: my ALT values were in the 40s - you get clean and waboom your liver says fuck off - I've done a lot of reading about narcotics over the years, I am always on a harm reduction forum trying to spread around some decent info for others making the same mistakes or about to and don't realize it. I've read case study after case study of every type of withdrawal from every drug - top it off I'm a pharmacology nut. The bottom line is I can't figure this shit out to save my life lol - maybe viral?

Just got a call back from the docs - the referral is in and it should take THREE weeks before they expect me to be able to see the specialist. Suggestions? Another three weeks like this is getting risky for me, pain management is tough enough, lack of sleep and not really being able to hold food = cravings. Won't sugar coat it - this situation sucks and I'm just doing my best to stay away from the pain killers, even though at this point I understand that they would mask it - I want it figured and fixed, masking shit never did me good.

what do you mean "they expect me to be able to see the specialist". you have the referral, that means you call the specialist yourself and make the appointment. i feel like you aren't exactly rushing this like you should be.

They already faxed the request, the specialist said she can fit me within the next 3-4 weeks - I called already and said if ANYTHING opens or anyone drops out etc - please call me asap. I'm doing what I can bro.

there are other specialist under your insurance plan. they just gave you one closest to you. go online and find all the specialist under your plan within 50 miles if you have to. call every one of them up and I am almost positive you will be able to get an appointment well before 3-4 weeks.

we could be talking about your fucking life here. dont fuck with me on this. i will come up to mass and we are talking scorched earth mother fucker!

for real bro. get the fuck on it.
