Guest guest Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Hey All, My spleen is so enlarged it is now pushing against other organs and recently my diaphram, lungs, causing a dry cough and now pain in the left breast, side of ribs which is worsened when I lay down. Recently I was in the hospital for two weeks and they ran every test from CT scan to ultrasound to bone marrow, negative on everything. Conventional medicine has no other option besides removal. I've been researching TCM[Traditional ] success with the liver and spleen and also detoxificiation such as liver flushes... my liver is also at the beginning stage of cirrhosis, supposedly from Hep B, but that was 17 years ago and have repeatedly been told it is not active and enzymes okay, anyway some toxicity there, whatever the cause. Also, I have a history of low platelletes and antibodies against my own platelettes, which is a condition called ITP or Idiopathic[unknown cause] Thrombocytopenia. This apparently means to spleen eats up platelettes I have occasionally had some serious GI bleeds from esophogeal verises, about six times over 12 years, requiring multiple transfusions. I went back to the emergency room yesturday and spent 10 hours there and then came home, nothing they could do, and my doctors who were on my most recent case are not on-call on the weekends. I really need some quick advice and/or referrals to a TCM doctor and/or ND [Naturopathic Doctor] as I'm not sure how much longer I can last like this. I live in Santa Monica, Los Angeles County, California. Healthfully and Hopefully, Kelly Jon Landis kjlandis 310-663-3895 [cell] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
