Hepatomegaly is the term used for an enlarged liver size. It can be seen in multiple disorders, some of which are hematological reasons. These include: hemolytic anemia, hematological malignancies (CML, primary mylofibrosis, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma), PNH, AIHA, sickle cell disease (SCD), hyper ammonia due to zinc deficiency, disseminated intravascular disease (DIC), antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), HELP syndrome, cryoglobinemia and amyloidosis. The diagnosis is made on bases of liver function test, specific labs for disease (like presence of antibodies or specific cells on peripheral blood picture), ultrasound and scans like CT and MRI.

I’ve been living with Parkinson’s disease for quite some time, and for years, I struggled to find lasting relief. While medications offered some temporary help, the symptoms always returned and often worsened.Out of a mix of hope and hesitation, I decided to try an herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. I’ll admit, I was skeptical at first. But around the fourth month, I began to notice real, steady progress.my tremors became less frequent the stiffness in my body eased My balance and coordination gradually improved It wasn’t an overnight transformation, but it was consistent and life changing. For the first time in years, I feel more in control of my body. I can move with greater freedom, sleep more peacefully, and enjoy daily activities without the constant discomfort I once accepted as normal.The improvement I’ve experienced physically, emotionally, and mentally has been nothing short of upliftings.If you're exploring natural options for managing Parkinson’s, I wholeheartedly recommend looking into NaturePath Herbal Clinic. Their approach has made a real difference in my life, and I’m truly grateful I gave it a chance. www.naturepathherbalclinic.com info@naturepathherbalclinic.com
