Fluid and salt that is absorbed from the intestines goes into the body’s circulation by entering the portal vein. Hypertension (high blood pressure) in the portal vein results from scarring of the blood vessels in the liver. As a result, fluid accumulation in the abdomen occurs. At early stages of disease, abdominal swelling is often thought to be due to fat or extra gas in the intestines. However, when fluid in the peritoneal cavity (a space between the intestines in the abdomen) forms it is called ascites. Ascites will continue to increase or decrease based on fluid and salt intake. Ascites can also press on other large blood vessels in the abdomen causing fluid retention in the ankles and legs. This fluid retention is called edema.

Originally developed in 2003 by writer and lupus patient Christine Miserano, spoon theory aims to explain how chronic conditions can impact one’s ability to complete daily tasks. Those with chronic illness or pain, Miserano explains, begin the day with a set of metaphorical “spoons” that represent one’s mental or physical energy that can be used for activities. Learn more about spoon theory and find ways to preserve your energy in "Saving Your Spoons: Creating a Low-Energy Home Routine," available on the Subscriber Portal.
