I am 38 years old. I have stage 4 cirrhosis of liver and hepatitis c?


some days i look ok and some days i look like iam a old my wrinkled and my skin colors turns really dark and my etyes get bags under them and they become really red and irritated. also my neck gets really supple and my body is slotched. I work and i feel sometimes so embarrased and hate looking at people because i look so bad. is there any medication over the counter or anything i can do to change this. i also have diabetes. I do take milk thistle to support liver function. please help

I'd consult with the doctor before taking anything over the counter also the doctor can probably give you a better prescription. As for the eye bags try putting ice or vaseline before you sleep.
