I had my liver biopsy in April and was diagnosed with AIH the same month. Please could you tell me if it is usual for the Dr to not give me any medication at the beginning? I had a blood test in May but nothing since then. Thank you for reading x

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,

Trust9
