In January 2011 I was told I was AMA+ and I had PBC. In December 2011 I had a lap band removed and while they we in there I requested a liver biopsy. The results showed I had PBC. I refused any medication for PBC because I was not taking medicine that "may" help slow dow the progression of PBC.
Last week I saw my gasto doc to scheduld a colonoscopy. He looked at my recent blood work and said he is thinking I never had PBC. He ordered a new AMA blood test. He called with the results and my AMA is negative and I do not have PBC. What's up? The liver biopsy 12 years ago said I did.
