You'll find lots of information about Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) on the British Liver Trust page @ britishlivertrust.org.uk/li...

There are several members of the forum with PBC - it's believed to be an auto-immune condition.

There is also a website - here on this general 'health' website 'Health Unlocked' that is specifically about, and for, people with PBC.

It is run by the 'PBC Foundation' a Scotland-based, UK support group for all people - wherever they are - with PBC. Their website is amazingly helpful and informative, and their trained advisors are lovely and supportive. You can contact them via the phone or email links on the 'PBC Foundation' website.

To find them:

Click on 'Health Unlocked' at the top of this page, and that should lead you to a list of all Groups that have sites here on the 'Health Unlocked' 'host' site. Just look for 'PBC Foundation' on that list, or just Google 'PBC Foundation'.

I hope this helps, take care.
