Good afternoon patbott,

I am sure our forum members will be along to share their experiences shortly.

I would suggest you try to contact your hepatologist (liver specialist) to discuss and clarify your management plan.

I have included link to British Liver trust information regarding Auto Immune Hepatitis (AIH)

You can also call our nurse led helpline on 0800 652 7330 Mon-Fri 10am-3pm

Take care,
