Questions to ask your doctor

16 Replies

Good afternoon everyone!

I have included a link below to a section on the British Liver Trust Website with useful questions to ask your doctor at various stages of liver diagnosis/disease. It sits within the Patient Charter section - but I thought it was worth highlighting as an area of interest/support

Thank you. My very jaundiced 20 son is awaiting an appointment following a liver biopsy a week ago. This will be helpful.

Hi

I hope you get appointment very soon. If you don't hear anything get in touch with consultant's secretary. Has your son got a liver nurse, I was diagnosed with compensated cirrhosis of the liver and have now got a liver nurse who I must say is brilliant. I can phone her with anything and she will always push for an appointment if need be. Please let me know how you get on. Thinking of you both. Love and hugs Lynne xxxx

I love this one re decompensated liver questions:-

“What options are available to me within my clinical care plan?”

I went through the whole process from start to finish and a clinic care plan was not on anyone’s lips - not in the four years, ever!

Good questions though, thanks for the link Trust9 (you who have no name 😀). If only I had known about HU before my TP 😀👍.

This is actually very useful-most of the folk that appear on this forum are here because they haven't had stuff explained to them. I'll be using the section about abnormal blood results shortly-I predict Thanks again :-)
