Question 10

why is it a liver cirrhosis  patient  find it hard to swallow  foods leading to his death  due to low blood pressure?

Accepted Answer

Last stages: At the end, the liver is unable to remove small molecules that cause the blood vessels to relax and not return blood to the heart. Appetite goes around this time. The pathology community is talking about dropping the word "cirrhosis" as it conveys a sense of hopelessness; in fact if the cause can be rx'd, it often at least partly reverses itself. If not, wishing a peaceful & dignified end.
