Hi all, I have had a phone call from Leeds this evening and my alt and alp are stable but my bilirubin has shot right up again over a 100. They suspect it's my bile ducts so off on my jollies again this week for an MRI scan, hopefully that will give us some answers we need 😀

Good luck

Hopefully they can unblock and stretch the duct with a stent

Might take more than one but it did sort my hubbies b duct in the end

Good luck with everything . I'm back at Leeds Tuesday they rang for me to go in sooner than scheduled. Wouldn't say why maybe cos I went to hospital on Wednesday for this stomach pain that won't go away. It's getting me down abit cos it's so painful I'm literally housebound and no one seems to be bothered when they know it's not my liver. I think it is though but I suspect we all think that post tx cos it's scary 😱 . Again good luck and I'm sure they will sort it xx

Hope you are ok and they get things sorted out soon. It us good they are keeping an eye on you. The first few months after transplant are always a roller coster but it WILL settle down soon. Its just getting used to its new home. It took ages for my David to settle in but he is doing great now and if he niggles a bit i just have a strong talk to him lol. Stay strong. Xxxx😀😊

Hope all is great as can be and find some comfort. Out of all the things we do I find the MRI the best I had mentioned once a long time ago that I felt as if I have claustrophobia from then on it's been medication and a great nap 🤠

I hope you all feel better soon, it's not fair, you've all been through enough.

I've been quite rough with pain, had only an hour's or so sleep for a while now. Got to keep smiling! You all take care. Lots of love Lynne xxxx

I have been looking to see how you are hun,

I hope that your bilirubin count settles soon. Mine shoots up every time I get an infection for God knows why. Hoping this is the case for you.

Still have you on all of the healing groups and prayer circles.

Take care

Rita
