My ex-husband is in the hospital again, this time with a high
ammonia level and severe anemia. He quit drinking last August, and has gone through the fluid in the belly (ongoing issue), has bands in his esophogus. The doc got him all cleaned out overnight, but his ammonia level only dropped 3 points. It is still very high (149). We got the lab results this morning and checked his MELD score. According to it, he is at a 12. That confuses me, as we are watching him get worse.
