What does your hepatologist think? See if he/she has other patients with this & maybe they can advise you?

Have you ever tried an elimination diet to see if any foods are causing the problem?

In such conditions, it is required to keep seeing your doctor on regular basis because they can only keep track on your health changes and that may be gives some clues to your diagnosis.
