What prognosis for my son with liver failure? he has ascites which has been drained and edema. has jaundice & worryingly repeated internal bleeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Liver failure : I realize how concerned you are about your son. As you can imagine that those symptoms are pretty serious. I am sure his doctors have a lot more information and are in a much better position to answer this question. I suggest you have a detailed conversation with his doctor with your son's permission.
