Fibroscan at last

Had my fibroscan on Friday After a long wait due to Covid and very relieved to have a score of 7.1 and Cap score of 254. Was worried it might be higher. Hoping next years scan will be better now I’m taking Urso. It’s taken a long time to get diagnosed and I want to say a big thanks to my rheumatologist for that light bulb moment that led to diagnosis.

Glad you are relieved. What’s the source of your liver disease and what will unsolved do?

I have PBC and the Urso should prevent further damage from the bile that cannot drain away from the liver. That’s the theory!! I hope it proves so.
