I'm revising right now on gastroenterology, and cannot imagine how I would go about without thiskind of comment (not just as a clarification, but also as a way to continue studying if you are eyes are not even following the words on your book/notes anymore). Thank you from Italy!!

I'm so confused, I was diagnosed with hepatic encephalopathy. I asked my hepatologist what that meant in terms of my everyday life. She would never answer the question. Based on my medical records the numbers seemed really high. I switched to a gastroenterologist who was much more knowledgeable but he didn't give me a direct answer either. However, his level of treatment was on point based on what I read. My report also said I have portal hypertension. Again, I never got an answer to what that meant for my day to day life. I had the typical symptoms lethargy, forgetfulness, speech issues, daytime Sleepiness, ascites etc. This was all shocking to me as I never drank alcohol, use tobacco, marijuana and seldom used medication. A biopsy of my liver showed sarcoidosis which explains the diagnosis but I still don't understand what condition my liver is in and the impact short / long term.

Hi, how you are doing now? @clearinsight2696 Have you changed your diet and exercise? Have you begun any medications/treatment? I am in a very similar situation (rarely drink alcohol, no smoking/drugs) and recently found out that I have high ALT - 90/AST - 48 and having trouble with speech, concentration, brain fog, bloating, belching, laugh at inappropriate times, itchiness. I am waiting to hear back to see if they will do liver ultrasound but am worried.

Don't worry - more are coming! Filming them is more involved than with most of my other videos, so I need to wait for a stretch of a few days in a row that are completely free (i.e. no teaching, no patients, kids in school). First batch will be peripheral edema, GI bleeding, headache, and polyuria. Second batch will be (I think): jaundice, diarrhea, hematuria, and abdominal pain.

Very well explained. Is Lactulose a better choice than Rifaximin or (Xifaxin)? These pills are very expensive.
@StrongMed
@StrongMed 3 жыл бұрын
To the best of my understanding of the currently available literature, lactulose and rifaximin have similar efficacy in preventing episodes of encephalopathy, lactulose is much cheaper, and rifaximin is better tolerated (due to lactulose causing bloating and diarrhea). The combination of them is probably more effective than either alone. Even in the US where cost is often inappropriately ignored, the difference in price between lactulose and rifaximin is high enough that lactulose is typically the first treatment used. The only time I would consider starting with rifaximin right off the bat would be if the patient specifically told me that cost was not an issue at all.

@@StrongMed Thanks for the information and reply. The hospital started the Rifaximin. Not knowing the cost until I started to fill the medication, when out of hospital. Filled one. Extremely expensive. Did not order any more, but tried to find a way to pay less for it. Lactulose is used at higher doses. It took the Dr. a while to understand I could not afford the cost. The insurance covered it while in the hospital. The Dr. increased the Lactulose. Thanks again.

There is no specific time frame. If the cirrhosis is well compensated, a patient may never progress beyond grade 1, whereas if there is an acute inciting event (e.g. GI bleed, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis), encephalopathy may dramatically worsen over a very short time interval, but then rapidly improve with treatment. Grades of hepatic encephalopathy are much more dynamic than stages of cancer, or classes of heart failure.

Can hepatocellular carcinoma cause hepatic encephalopathy? Or is it only cirrhosis?
@StrongMed
@StrongMed 2 жыл бұрын
Any disease which severely affects the entire liver can cause hepatic encephalopathy. This is most typically seen with cirrhosis, but could also be seen in severe acute hepatitis, or in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) superimposed on chronic hepatitis. I have not personally heard of HCC alone causing encephalopathy, but if the tumor burden was large enough (i.e. the primary tumor was very large, or there were many different sites of HCC) I suppose it would be possible.

How long does HE grade 1 develop to HE grade 4 ?
@StrongMed
@StrongMed 2 жыл бұрын
There is no specific time course - it depends on factors such as the severity of the liver disease, whether or not the patient is already on some amount of treatment for HE, and what the specific trigger is for the HE. Many patients with chronic cirrhosis already on modest amount of lactulose can remain in grade 1 for days or even weeks. Other patients with acute liver failure complicated by a GI bleed can progress to grade 4 in a single day.
