Liver Results - Noone can tell me whats normal
Hi All, I'm generally very healthy (lots of exercise) although since I was approx 23 (I'm now 57) my GGT levels have been elevated to between 58-88. This concerned me a little (didn't really concern my Doc) although my ALT's & AST's have always been within normal range. I do drink quite a bit...but

Diagnosed with Non Alcohol Cirrhosis
Hi everyone, I was recently diagnosed with stage 2 non alcoholic cirrhosis and am having a lot trouble accepting my diagnosis. It could be because my dad died of alcohol cirrhosis 21 years ago and I know how bad it can get. I have very few symptoms right now and am just being monitored. I know my prognosis

Fib-4 score 0.66
Hello Everyone, please advise if fib-4 score is same as fibro scan score. Mine is 0.66 or 1 32. I am worried sick about it. It says the score is intermediate. I think I have terry nails, itching and dull pain. Is this mean that I have advanced cirrhosis? My blood test are normal.

Diet suitable for NAFLD cirrhosis and type 2 diabetics.
Hi, I have been diagnosed with cirrhosis through NAFLD. I have no idea what diet or where to find a diet suitable to follow. Being type 2 doesn't help either. Need carbs for liver, carbs no good for diabetics. Fats such as butter bad for my liver, what should I spread on bread? etc. What should I eat

insurance issues……
hello, I’ve been lurking on the site for around 7 months, since my OH was hospitalised in August and we found he had liver cirrhosis. It’s been a challenging few months and he’s been medically retired from work now. We are trying to live life as fully as we can, within his limitations, as many

high liver enzymes
Hello there. I was wondering if anyone had any experiences or knowledge over what I’m going through right now. Recently I had my blood test done. My ALT,AST, and alkaline phosphates came out super high (131, 89, 146) respectfully. I was struggling with a really bad flu at the time of these tests. Could

how often for a Fibroscan
Someone recently asked how often she should get a fibroscan or a MRE ( a more sophisticated scan). In Dr. Jones' book he says after getting one usually upon diagnosis for a baseline, most have one repeated every 1-5 years depending on how active or aggressive the disease is. I strongly encourage everyone

Lorenzo's Oil Revisited
Chances are you don't take it. I investigated it thoroughly and even had a decent source secured. I only opted out when I was told it would nullify my medical insurance. Depending on whatever scientific report you read it either doesn't work, or stops/reverses progression if you start taking it before

taking Urso
I know some of you have already read the comments on the FB page. The subject of taking Urso, even though it causes so many side effects and ‘doesn’t keep me from dying’, has been brought up. I feel in my heart I need to offer my thoughts. I have been taking Urso for over 35 years. I had PBC for 20
