HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the liver cirrhosis then under lying cause of this would be matter of concern and this needs to be treated if this is not due to alcohol then second would be viral infection, or other parenchymal pathology liver function could clear the diagnosis till then symptomatic medicine can be taken for nausea and vomiting and "Ondansetron" is drug of choice else nothing would be much helpful hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
