Alcoholic heptic / cirrhotic liver stink
    #23540788 - 08/14/16 12:51 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

This guy who works in my building of occupation is a 'dying' alchoholic. He's light weight, mid 30's, tall and alchoholic to the point that I can smell his liver dying.

He stinks from far away, its a chemically, methyl-esque smell, and I looked it up online. Lots of wives reporting their alcoholic husbands chemical stink. It's not from his breath, it comes through his pores. It doesn't go away with a shower.

It's caused by the liver not being able to metabolize something any more and just it dumps it into the blood and it excretes out the sweat glands. Is got a methyl type chemical in it which is what makes it smell so methylly.

He can't smell it himself, but everyone around him can. I actually tracked him down one day by (not by choice) following the scent.

Its hella disgusting and i avoid the guy because of it. Just a warning to alchoholic shroomerites. Check yoself, this might be you.

The way people get hired and not fired in this building is just
:thisisterrible:

Luckily it's massive enough that I almost never have to see or deal with these people.

My dad once told me about cadavers from alcoholics/smokers he had to dissect/help dissect in med school. Apparently they always smell pretty terrible, especially the drinkers.

I totally agree with your message and your stance on stinky persons.  That being said, I doubt that many alcoholics give a fuck what they smell like.  With that being said, is the smell worse than a dirty-hippie-wook-festi-person?

You're actually smelling alcohol coming out of his pores. I was confronted by a coworker one day who pulled me aside because he liked me and he liked to party too. I was totally unaware that last night/early morning's booze had me smelling like rubbing alcohol.

It sucks being an alcoholic. I would drink enough to get drunk enough every night, and I would drink until my head hit the pillow. I thought I was immune to hangovers. Nope. I was just so saturated I could go a whole shift before getting withdrawals. I looked at people who drank 1/10th of what I did and woke up with a splitting headache like pussies cuz I never got headaches. Noooope. Just stillll "drunk" without feeling happy.

I got moved to a night shift by myself and then others got added. On the first night after the weekend they always kept a great distance from me. Stupid. But I had my reasons. Every drunk does. It is disgusting and so is the behavior but it's also sad.

You have no idea how hard it is to get help when you're in that deep. Go to the ER they say. Get a medical detox they say. Go to rehab they say. Get a shrink they say. Been there. At least tried...alot. Strike 1, 2, 3, 4. Alcoholics are treated like trash. I have no experience with opiate problems but it seems like people are eager to help them out with treatment.

Some employers actually allow to put a person on leave to get treatment. Tell this dude that time away from his working life/ after work life is what he needs. Paychecks can wait and other jobs will come. But first thing's first, there is no camouflage for a working alcoholic.

Are you sure it's alcoholism that is making him stink, and not diabetes?

Diabetics often smell bad too.

Methyl doesn't have a smell. Methane is odorless. Natural gas is mixed with tert-butylthiol to give it that characteristic smell, as a safety measure.

I don't know much about cirrhosis, but I read up on the stank it produces, and apparently this is due to the inability of the liver to process dimethyl sulfide.

Tert-butylthiol and dimethyl sulfide both have a sulfur atom in their formula, I am pretty sure that is what is responsible for the smell. I'm guessing most of us are familiar with the odor of sulfur, in some form. It is a stank-ass element.

Doesn't seem to be diabetes, I've drank'd with him before and he has told me about how much he drinks. I remember him saying "I drink alot.... aLOT..." and then laughing about it.

He also said something about how messed up his liver is and even mentioned something like "when I get liver cancer"
