pain in left side
Hi have Chorrosis of the liver and have been good up until today. I have felt discomfort in my left side and it goes up the left side of my back to my neck. I did contact my local gp who is going to do bloods on Tuesday as there extremely busy. Will it have something to do with my diagnosis? Or anyone

Nicotine…… a complete no-brainer.
Update most don’t know about nicotine, you should. Read my previous post if you’re wondering about it. I’ll soon be off c/l. I have experimented with nicotine and it seems to work better than the meds. My sense of smell is returning. I’m smelling things that I wish I couldn’t smell, lol. I forgotten

worries
Here again. I am just so worried still. My liver enzymes were high. Managed to stay off the booze. Alt gone down slightly but ggt gone up a lot. Iron is low. My g p keeps saying it’s mental health issues but surely that cannot make my bloods deranged. She did an e consult to hepology and he said I

I posted before about hoping to take my partner on holiday - which is looking unlikely and also irresponsible. He has cirrhosis which is fairly stable, having paracentesis again soon - but he’s tried and weak and pretty much not able to do much. The trouble is that he insists he is fine, can look after

Hi - and welcome! My name is Donna - I facilitate this support group for The PBC Foundation - Health Unlocked. If you are new to your diagnosis, first of all, take a breath. It’s ok.

got tested
hello, today I got following tests, ast, alt, bilirubin, ggt, leuktocytes, hemoglobin and all were normal now . then I assume that my so-called symptoms are not due to decompensated liver cirrhosis.. or how were your blood tests at diagnosis/symptoms (fatigue, spider nevi)(?) ☀️☀️

This is a protein made by the liver, the level of which is measured as a part of your liver function tests. The albumin plays 2 important parts: 1. It carries molecules in the blood that are not water soluable. When bound to albumin, the molecule becomes water

Can I take him on holiday?
My partner has decompensated cirrhosis - and is currently in hospital with hyponatremia. He suffers from anxiety and finds it hard to eat - except for Ensure, which seems to be keeping him going. We hope his condition will stabilise soon though. He very much wants to go on holiday and I think that
