@mholzschlag hello, I’d love to understand how you have been managing HE. Any ideas to help us very welcome as I have a family member who has recently been diagnosed with hepatic encephalopathy due to liver scarring. Thank you.

Hi there Liza I'm sorry for you and your family. He comes from buildup of toxins in the brain such as ammonia which can't be released from the body quickly enough due to the liver not functioning properly. Symptoms include fatigue, depression anxiety panic memory issues.

However the good news is that the problem can be cleared if not very late in the main illness. if the liver still functions well the problem is often poor diagnosis. A doctor must differentiate onset of symptoms as being physical toxicity not the onset of the psychiatric problem.

I'm not a physician so I can't give you diagnosis cure but as of patient I can tell you I had almost out of trouble clearing it without medicine. Using diet and nutrients can help a lot it just depends upon the cause of the problem and severity of the organ damage. Diagnosis

Diagnosis is not that hard there are differential concerns. Does your family member have a strangely sweet and unpleasant problem with bad breath? Is the Depression more of a brain fog and confusion and the liver appears suddenly larger, jaundice may appear on skin and the eyes.
