    Dear wanda23,

    The easiest way to locate other members with similar experiences is to type keywords (such as "enlarged liver," "discomfort," etc.) on the search bar at the top of the home page. You can refine your search by clicking on the different categories of content listed below the list of keyword matches that you get from your search. The major categories of content on CSN are discussion boards, personal web pages, etc. For example, if you are looking for a personal web page, you can limit your search to personal web pages only by clicking on the "personal web pages" category. Remember that you must be logged in if you want to post anything on a discussion boards, view personal web pages, use the chat room, etc.

    We hope this information is useful,
    Your CSN Staff

    I had similar symptoms last Nov when tests showed my breast cancer had spred to my liver. Prilosec and my cancer drugs made a big difference. Eat small meals several times a day, things that taste good and do not cause gas are best
