What a to do.
What I would like to know is do steroids thin the blood? I posted this somewhere yesterday but it seemed to disappear. I was given Apixaban anticoagulant because of A/F. Within four weeks I had collapsed and was taken to Resus with a Haemaglobin of 57. I had 4 transfusions and the consensus was that

Fybromialgia versus Arachnoiditis
How can one differentiate from Fybromialgia and Arachnoiditis? Every time I ask a doctor they cannot answer either... it is a widespread pain all over... Arachnoiditis is many times caused by childbirth botched epidurals and spinal Anesthetics... and botched spinal Surgeries... and the cause is always

Hi, please don’t think I’m dismissing anyone’s choice to have weight loss surgery. I’m not. I was in that position 12 years ago. I had my gastric bypass done on the NHS and I so wish I hadn’t. I hope the psychological support is better now, but it was almost none existent when I had mine, and the dieticians

Fibroscan today, AST/ALT, and such
I just paid to have a fibroscan done privately. On a side note it blows my mind these aren't used more. The reason I had it done is because I've had mild right side pain and other (mostly mild) GI symptoms ongoing for 2.5 months now. I quit drinking as soon as this started. I saw my doc and labs were

Elevated Lipase -Cirrhosis ?
Hello, I've been dealing with concern of having Cirrhosis over the past year. I've had CT scans , ultrasounds and many blood tests during this time and nothing significant comes back. My drinking history is the reason for my concern and that I may not have stopped in time. I no longer drink alcohol

Is it possible for APL to fall 118 points in just one month?
I am 65 and have had PBC for 13 years. My levels dropped from over 800 in 2013 to 200, where they have remained for the past 4 years, even though being on Ocaliva for one of these years. I was then given Betafibrate to try 6 months ago. Saw my wonderful Prof last month and APL was 209. Recently had

Inflamed Gallbladder
Hi all - I know quite a few of you have had surgery to remove your gallbladder. I suffer from cholecystitis, which is chronic inflammation of the gallbladder. When I have a flare-up the pain is horrendous. I've been debating the pros and cons of surgery and, after a particularly painful attack last

Gallbladder attack
Hi guys, I'm 27 y/o and female. I have gallstones and am getting my gallbladder removed this week. For people that are in the same situation as me, am curious to know, what brings on your attacks? For me it was definitely alcohol related. Thanks!

3 months on Fenafibrate Tricor
I wrote 3 months ago that I was placed on Tricor, a cholesterol lowering drug that has been known to lower liver enzymes, as I was a non responder to Urso. My alkphos. was over 1,000 about two years ago. I was around 600 when I began the Tricor along with Urso. My recent blood work was so much better

Low Platelets........ a Cautionary Tale
Hi All, After my shower this morning, I decided to remove some of the dead skin on the heels of my feet. All went well until I slipped on the closed loo lid, and sliced a sliver of soft skin. I bled like a pig, and tried to stem the flow with tissue. It didn't work ,so I found a plastic bin liner in

Symptoms not going away
Good morning, I had my liver biopsy yesterday for elevated liver enzymes. They have not returned to normal after 8 months of abstinence. Is this a sign that advanced disease has already set in? My numbers went like this: ALT/AST -- 60/40(November), 60/40, 154/79, 108/54, 54/40 (May). I am so anxious
