Mrs. Thumisara was absolutely fine before 17 months back. Gradually she developed the problems of
abdominal distention, swelling of lower legs and mild to moderate shortness of breathing, so her family
members took her in medical shop near by her home and she was referred to hospital for further
management. At that time she attained the medical OPD and cirrhosis of liver was diagnosed and
advised to take oral medicines and stop of alcohol. Her condition was gradually improved.

Thumisara again started to take alcohol since 6-7 months and the problem was relapsed again and she
was admitted.
