Hi sherrie

This is hard to answer - I found this which is very interesting but does not seem - as far as I can see - to mention PBC. But Group 3 says or infers your specialists may decide who to high add to the risk category.

There is reference to another letter which I can’t find....

Dear Shezza123

I am sure you can appreciate this is a rapidly changing scenario.

For the time being please see link below to the British Liver Trust information regarding COVID-19 and it has relevant links to NHS and government documents.

britishlivertrust.org.uk/co...

This will be updated as regularly as possible and is a good source of reliable information.

For specific information regarding your own condition, I would suggest you contact your own medical team.

Take care and very best wishes.

Hi, I think the PBC foundation have put up stuff in answer to your question. If you don't have other health problems, or advanced liver disease then you aren't considered high risk.

I don't know about going to work as the guidance has changed last night. Maybe e mail PBC foundation to get clarity.

Stay safe x

I spoke to my gastro team yesterday as I too wasn't sure and they did say I should be self isolating for 12 weeks 😔
