I've only called in one time to the show and I lived in Lubbock, Texas------I actually got on air and I'm sure my question was stupid. That was back in the late 90's. I used to listen to the football games on Broadcast.com over my phone. That was Mark Cubans little baby and what got him started on his road to fame and fortune.

Tell me you don’t know what Vol Chat was without telling me you don’t know what Vol Chat was. 😜
 
That game shouldn't even be in the record books. Cumberlands baseball team and I believe some vandy students is who suited up to play GA Tech, because Cumberlands football players were fighting in WWII.
That would be amazing since WWII didn’t happen for another 25 years.
 
Symptomatic brain Mets typically will show up via imaging. Serum ammonia levels are relatively unreliable. If they have liver disease/dysfunction, you’ll have to check clinically and titrate lactulose to 3-4 BMs per day and/or add rifaximin. You can clinically check for asterixis which is helpful to see if there is a component of HE.

I don't know if he has asterixis (I'm going to have to study up on that one) but he has lost a massive amount of muscle from all of this and definitely has HE. I didn't think it possible to atrophy so quickly. He has trouble with coordination and standing completely upright. His billirubin is definitely high (bright orange to blood red). What is odd is that when he's been symptomatic before it's largely been a matter of increasing his lactulose and making sure he was having enough BMs but this time it's as though he's not responding at all to the lactulose beyond having BMs. Normally, when it's HE his symptoms go away with an increased dose.

That said, he has had mirror symptoms of HE when he's had sodium/potassium imbalances and a few years prior when he had an acute episode of kidney failure. I'd have to check my notes but I think his last brain scan was only about 2 months ago and there was nothing there.
