When first diagnosed it is overwhelming. I know this from my own experience as well. Getting accurate information is so important. Please don't google for information. Often it is inaccurate and out of date.
Other sources of good information are the Cleveland and Mayo Clinics' websites.
Make sure you are on the right dose of Urso. This is SO important. On the PBC Foundation website there is a very informative link and use of the calculator. Please take the time to look at this. Urso dosage is ONLY based on your body weight - NEVER on lab results or symptoms.
