Does the PBC cause the itch or the urso?
Before diagnosis I had no perceivable itch. I've been on urso about a year now. Recent bloods came back normal lft. So I guess urso must be working. I have scabs on my arms from itching. I did start taking questran light but gave up after a few days. Is it worth trying again. My official diagnosis

Porphyria and Lupus symptoms so similar how do you test
OK so I was diagnosed with Lupus/Hughes and sjorgens, perhaps I am in denial but i still feel that my symptoms are so off the scale and I often wonder if it is Porphyria - Does anyone know how to test for this or have any experience. I ask as being in the sun for just a minute brings on major symptoms

Skin creams containing paraffin linked to fire deaths
Dry skin and other skins conditions are common in thyroid disorders. I'd imagine a significant number of people here use various creams and similar to help their skin symptoms. Was somewhat surprised that this issue has popped up today, but it is obviously potentially concerning. Specific products mentioned

Galactin 3 and Cancer cell subtypes study
I mention this 2013 study as it is a good explanation of PC cell subtypes, the role of Galactin3 and Androgen Receptors in helping to determine which is which. It is somewhat scholarly but has clear explanations and seems a "solid" study. They mention Modified Citrus Pectin (Nalakrats!) as an inhibitor
