Are eggs bad for liver cirrhosis?

My doctor recently diagnosed me with liver cirrhosis, and he has given a very strict diet plan. I'm wondering if eggs, which I usually eat daily, are still okay or if I should completely avoid them. People have given me so many different opinions.

Haan, cirrhosis is a serious matter, na. The liver struggling to process proteins is common in advanced stages. Please don't take any chances with eggs or high-protein diets without your doctor's okay.

Haan na, liver cirrhosis is very delicate. My uncle had it and his doctor gave him a very specific diet chart. Eggs are generally good protein but you must ask the doctor first, ho na?

I know you might be looking for simple home diets, but cirrhosis cannot be managed with just home remedies. Eggs are highly nutritious, but please follow only your specialist's strict dietary instructions.

I have seen many ups and downs in health over 70 years. Cirrhosis needs very careful medical supervision. Do not worry too much, but let your doctor decide if eggs are safe for your specific liver condition.

At this stage of life, my body is like an old car engine. For cirrhosis, protein processing can overload the system. Eggs are great, but with a weak liver, only your hepatologist can tell you the safe limit.

Cirrhosis patients often suffer from muscle wasting, making protein intake crucial, but excess protein can also trigger complications like encephalopathy. Because of this delicate balance, your doctor's advice is absolutely best.

Look, cirrhosis is not a minor stomach ache that you can cure with internet advice. Stop asking online and go straight to a good gastroenterologist. Let them tell you if you can eat eggs or not.
