7. Mental Confusion
Mental confusion is a symptom of advanced fatty liver disease and cirrhosis. This may be harder to detect than the body’s other responses to liver problems. It’s also a symptom of several conditions and can occur from a lack of sleep.
Mental confusion may develop because the liver can’t adequately remove toxins from the blood, leading to brain damage. Mental confusion is often mistaken for mental illness and memory impairment disorders, such as dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.8Posted by Wayne Eskridge | 534.40sc November 20, 201 7: ‘Afraid of Losing Your Mind?
