Suggest Treatment For Liver Cirrhosis
My husband has been diagnosed with cirrhosis from Hep C. We are starting the process of liver transplant. He is nauseous and wretching and I am afraid his varix will bleed. Is there something I can do for him? His physician said to try Prilosec, but it doesn't work. Please help us.
