Lol fn lol. Yeah ,Ive had the experience. They don't overreact, but there are like the US army, which is spread out everywhere. That's how my doctor to put it It's not really conclusive, but yeah. You can be more prone to colds and allergies and just feeling like shit. I know you're new and I want to assure you for the most part. You're gonna be really good. And that's my story and the ones I know of my friends and my exes. You can get hit by a bus tomorrow....so...

Thanks Paul I tested negative for hep c still waiting for the autoimmune tests and stool samples test. So far all the other liver and some pancreas tests are all normal. My doctor mentioned an ultrasound test but I think he’s waiting for all the bloodwork and stools to all come back first. I on the other hand would have liked the ultrasound first since that will definitely rule out or confirm his 2 minute touching of my abdomen that my liver is enlarged. It’s weird I have no symptoms of liver disease or damage except for his diagnosis of enlarged liver and the lighter then normal stools which is only sometimes. In fact if it wasn’t for the stool issue I probably wouldn’t have even went to the doctor but I’m a hypochondriac lol. I did have a higher then normal range of alkaline phosphate in April when I got my blood work from my ID doctor.however the endocrinologist rechecked it this week and it’s back down to normal again.mystery abound😵‍💫.i guess I will know in the next week or two. Hope you’re right it might be nothing. However I do drink one or two times a week probably like 8 beers a week. What’s funny I asked my doctor if I should stop drinking until I get all results back he says no keep doing what you doing till we know if there a problem. I wanted to punch him lol he’s telling me he feels an enlarged liver but says I can still drink for now lol
