[|Human|] My sister is getting a amniocentesis done but I don t understand why. She has hepatitis and it is in the final stages. She needs a transplant. They put a stent in her and she is leaking but not from the place where they drain her stomach. She gained 55lbs in 5 days. She is in Piedmont In GA. I am really concerned
[|AI|]  Hi dear thanks for asking question. Noted you have final stage of hepatitis. According to history she has fluid accumulation in peritoneal cavity that is ascites which is complicated by chronic liver disease, might be cirrhosis. For ascites low salt diet taken with diuretic. If it is not working and massive ascites is present then by inserting needle excess fluid removed ... You have mentioned stent placed that is to reduce portal hypertension. Take care regarding taking low fat diet. More fruits and green leafy vegetables. Avoid smoking and alcohol if habit. Regular mild exercise done. Take papaya seed with lemon juice daily.Meanwhile, if blood in omitting occur immediately contact doctor. For further query you can contact Chat Doctor. Will happy to help you. Take care.
