Hello and welcome to the site. Everyone on here has either had liver disease/problems themselves or supported a loved one through it. If you have any questions or just feel the need vent or rant feel free and we can try to help you from our own experiences. As no one on here is medically trained we are not allowed to answer any questions to do with blood test results etc. Wishing you all the best

Hello there

Welcome, to one of the friendliest sites ever!

Here you will find, folk ready to support you and hold you up during the bad times, and the good as well.

When I first came to this site, I was truly in a very lonely place, felt like I was drowning.

I had family around me, but sometimes it’s hard to talk to them about what’s going on in your head.

I know in my heart now that I was not alone.

You seek your medical advice from the doctors, but here you can feed your heart and soul.

Ask questions about things you are not clear on, that maybe you are struggling to understand.

Here, I found people who have actually become friends, who are both loving and kind. With such a lot of supportive knowledge as well.

All at differing stages of this disease.

So be at peace because you can nearly always find someone, who is going through the exact, or near enough the same things as you.

I am sure you will get lots of welcoming replies, from all the awesome folks, on this site.

I am not qualified in the knowledge of anything really to offer advice, but there are lots who qualify just by virtue of the fact they have been through it.

For now, I send virtual welcome hugs to you.

Stay strong you are not alone anymore.
