Interesting diet study for NASH and Fibrosis.
"A clinical trial, led by a team at NDPCHS, has shown that a three-month rapid weight loss programme was not only safe but also effective in reducing the severity of a liver disease non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with liver fibrosis." https://www.phc.ox.ac.uk/news/rapid-weight-loss-found-to-be-safe-and-helpful-for-people-with-liver-disease

Very scared again
Hi, I posted here a few months ago and people were so genuinely nice to take the time to respond. Last year I had multiple tests because of symptoms of cirrhosis I have (they are not terribly obvious to others, they are to me). Amongst all the tests I had, the Fibroscans came back at 3.33 or so but

decompensated liver
Hi all, Around a year ago my mum was admitted to A and E with decompensated liver due to alcohol. It was very hard to get her admitted despite numerous phone calls to the doctors and the ambulance because she had capacity. She had ascites, encephalopathy, oedema and was yellow all over her skin and

Low B6... taking a complex with pyridoxine which obviously doesn't suit
Back to the search for the best B complex (Thorne being elusive at the moment and didn't do particularly well at keeping my B12 up)... one which contains pyridoxal 5' phosphate Does anyone rate Igennus Super B Complex? All suggestions welcome 🤗

Made to feel ashamed
I'm sorry if this is insignificant but I have just had a 'health review ' at my local doctors and made to feel ashamed and embarrassed and absolutely awful about myself.I have liver cirrhosis, I was ill November 2022 and had numerous scans and it was confirmed by a fibro scan. It scared the hell out

When to take Carvedilol?
Hi there, I haven't posted anything for here for a while - but do read other's stories and experiences which is often very helpful - so thank you! I am now taking 12.5mg of carvedilol per day - taking one in the morning and one at night before going to bed - I often feel the morning dose leaves me

Fibrosis?
Hi there. Continuing my journey to recovery, I was today told by my doctor that I need to have a blood test to see if I have any scarring of the liver. My LFT’s are better than they were in June last year. An ultrasound in August 23 noticed a fatty liver. So, can you still get scarring of the liver

Contrast ultrasound for liver hemangioma?
Hi me again. I had a normal ultrasound which detected a possible liver hemangioma. The hospital are sending me for a contrast ultrasound to confirm. Online it looks like an MRI is the usual way to confirm this. Is a contrast dye ultrasound as effective? Thanks.

Is carvedilol making you cold?
I recently had my Carvedilol increased to 6.25mg twice a day. Lately, I am freezing to the bone. I turn my heating up and up and am still cold when everyone else says its like a sauna. I just wondered if anyone else has this? It could also be my recent addition of diabetes medication, Sitagliptin. Never

intraocular bleed on Apixaban
I had a posterior vitreous detachment in my eye a few weeks ago. This is very common when you get older and is not usually dangerous. I already had this once, but this was before my Afib diagnosis and Apixaban. This time I was told by the ophthalmologist that I had had three minor bleeds and in fact
