So who should I be angry with-
Myself for not catching this sooner. The pharmacy for not cross checking the drugs. Or the doctors. My hubby is taking a boat load of medication (like who isn’t when you have this disease). We have a spreadsheet of all the medications and we provide copies to
all the doctors

Anyone taking 325mg aspirin with 1000-1500 HU daily for ET?
I'm 75 and my platelets are under 700. I also take fish oil along with a dozen prescription meds. My oncologist prescribed this much aspirin and HU. Should I be concerned? Anyone else taking this much aspirin and HU? I take 1000 every other day and 1500 opposite days.

High LFT results
I had my first 6 month appointment with my liver nurse last week. As part of the review I had a routine bloody test for LFT. My previous blood test was on the 14th Dec 23 and my numbers were gradually reducing. I just had the results this morning and pretty much all my levels have increased including

Hi.....again
Hi everyone, My partners liver cirrhosis had disappeared - to look at him you wouldn't know anything was wrong, he's on medication and for a while everything was good. Now he's developing a hard tummy again, I'm now worried that something is very wrong as he hasn't drank since he went to hospital back

Is it fair to keep cirrhosis a secret from family?
Hi, I just learned a parent has stage 4 liver cirrhosis. Some family has known for a year that tests were borderline and this was a possibility. This parent has been sober for over one year and is walking 1-2 miles a day. We’re told it’s compensated stage 4 and he could have anywhere from one year to

cirrhosis and statins
I’ve not asked for help on here before and would really appreciate any advice. I have alcoholic cirrhosis and am being recommended statins for cholesterol by my practice nurse. I’m a 57 year old UK male. The information sheet from the nurse session warns not to take statins if you have cirrhosis. I’m

Fatty Liver -Pain
Hi, I have had NAFLD for several years but have just started to get pain with it. I think it may have moved to NASH and possibly fibrosis or cirrhosis (nothing has confirmed that officially yet). I had a blood test and the doctor said that the liver function number was raised more so than usual. It

is this possible?
My son died at the age of 36 in the USA in September 2023. He had been alcohol dependent but had finally managed to stop drinking a month before, and his liver results were steadily improving . He woke up one Sunday bright yellow but feeling fine and it took his wife 48 hours to persuade him to go to

Fighting for corrections is so hard.
I am coming up on the one year of my wife's passing. On this day last year, she was sitting in her hospital bed eating frozen fruit. She was at 99% Sat with 1l of O2, and the plan was to turn it off in the morning. LFT's bang on Normal. Indirect Billi is still high, direct normal. Albumin low Plat low
