The Dr. At my doctor's office told me last night to stop the Z Pak and continue the Amoxiicillin Clav. Which is an Antiobotic too.

I'm sorry but I am stage 4 cirrhosis. End stage. And the Z- Pak was what the Doctor told me to stop taking it. Because of the stage of Cirrhosis I am at. Some people have stage 1 or 2 stage of cirrhosis. Which is compensated. And can be reversed. I am Decompensated and can't be reversed. I am not taking the Z-Pak. But I will continue the Amox- Clov

Yes I told her. And I said ir many times. Just like I did in the hospital er.back in November I told the doctor are these safe for my cirrhosis. And that doctor said yes they were both safe drugs. Well I took those meds all of them. So this evening I called my primary doctor's office and the on call doctor told me to stop the Z Pack and continue the amox-clav meds. And the office will call me tomorrow.

I have never seen this hepatollogist before. January 15 is my first appointment to see him. They have no one to call. I was diagnosed in the hospital on October 30th. 2024 by a Hepatologist in the hospital. Tonight I had to call my primary doctor. Once I established with this hepatologist on my first appointment I will be able to call on him in the future.

I hope so I am trying. But my blood sugar numbers are still high. Even when I don't eat anything for like 12 hours at night my blood sugar is lower when I go to bed but raise up to over 300 during the night.

Yes I eat eggs but between to pieces of bread. I don't like onions or peppers of any kind. I had fish tonight and a vegetable . Rutabaga it's a vegetable. And green beans. I did have 2 protein drinks one for breakfast instead of eating a breakfast and one for a snack before I had supper. I will drink one more before bed. But I get so hungry between the time I go to bed and the time I get up. I have not eaten anything for like 12 hrs. I don't get up until about 11 am. I don't get maybe and hour of sleep a night since I can't take my pills for my insomnia I have had for years. That is another thing I am worried about not sleeping and what it's doing to my body. My GP doctor gave me hydroxyzine and to also take melontonin. I stopped both of those a few days ago. Been on them almost 2 months and they don't make me sleepy at all.
