Good GI Appt

Hubby had a good GI appt this morning. Doc was pleased with his labs. He can now wait 3 months until more labs and another visit.

So I am calm for now!

Doctor says the best thing hubby can do to heal himself and his liver is
NO ALCOHOL and eating healthy.

For Wondering and Mary...there is hope if your hubby's can stop drinking. I never thought we would be here. Alcohol free for 108 days today. I am thankful for each and every day.

Thanks Connie and Rick.

Connie-coming back from this is what I pray for daily. I am trying to relax too. I have always been a worry wart!

The GI said the changes in labs will probably be small from now on, and to only be concerned if there are big jumps heading for the wrong direction. Also that this may be his new "normal" since there is damage to his liver. Interestingly, that it could take 6 months or more for the bilirubin to go to normal (if it ever does). And that it would be over the next year or two before he would determine how much damage there is to hubby's liver...watching to see if he every becomes decompensated.

So, other than wishing this had never happened, I am feeling better about things today and have a bit of a bounce in my step. :)
