As many of you know I've had a lot of pain lately, today I got some news, my liver tests are abnormal.
Not terribly so, just a little, and it is large, swollen, the doctor said he could feel it under my ribcage and he shouldn't be able to.

And it HURTS, along with sickness, headaches and basic shitty feeling.

There is a lot of stuff online about stomach problems and this tablet, Infact this tablet in general.
Why is it still around? I'm seeing my specialist tomorrow to be taken off it, then I am having scans to check that it is actually the liver that is hurting, I am quite confident though.
Very few people have a good word to say about it.

Hi Zara,

I'm so sorry to hear that you are having a lot of pain. Years ago I was taking Depakene and my neuro ordered a liver check to be done once a week because the drug can get into the liver. You take it easy and my prayers are with you. Wishing you only the best and May God Bless You!
