AIH Liver pain

Hi TG123

I was diagnosed approx 12 years ago

As my LFT/readings came down I was taken off of Prednisalone and moved over to Budisonide too

From memory I experienced quite a lot of pain/discomfort in the liver area, I was advised that this was probably to do with the liver both eating the dead cells and while it was regenerating its self

With me it passed after a while with no other intervention

Once I was stable for a while the Bud was stopped, I now take only Aza 100mgs per day and I would lie to reduce it to 50 but Drs are not keen

Hope this helps

Pete

Hi Pete

that is very interesting, I wondered whether you had written this post in response to tennisgirl123 and her thread asking if pain was normal for her meds/ AIH?

if it was, this might be useful for her. Maybe a moderator could move this post or perhaps, you could copy and paste it as a reply on her thread.

Just my thoughts, but I'd keep my dosage to what the Dr recommends and maybe a blood test in future would agree with you.
