Non alcoholic fatty liver disease
Hi, I was recently told (16th December) that I have NAFLD. This kinda worries me a bit as I don't know much about it. This was found on a MRI scan (mrcp) for another condition. I have had a genetic blood test and a liver function etc done and as of yet not got the latest results. Hopefully the results

Cirrhosis just diagnosed loads of questions
Evening all. I was diagnosed today and whilst I was able to ask some questions I have loads more. I'd welcome any answers you might have. Is it usual for them to assume it is alcohol related? I ask because I did have a problem for a couple of years drinking 1 to 2 bottles of wine each day but I was

Recently diagnosed with macular degeneration
I was really surprised, not in a good way when I was told at a routine eye test that I had macular degeneration, the dry sort. The optician told me to go home and not worry about it as it was early days. I did go home and realised I was in shock - I couldn't stop thinking about it, I couldn't even

Contacts lenses/eye drops instead of injections
Hi there just thought just in case you don't know that much research is happening at the moment about how different methods can be used to give drugs that need to be absorbed in the eye such as lucentis, avasrin and eylea instead of using an injection .Research into using contact lenses and or eye drops

Liver pain. How long to repair? Am I doing it right? Feeling frustrated and on my own with it.
After a bit of a bad phase and far too many binge drinking sessions, I woke one morning with horrendous pain in my right side and a swollen/rock hard liver. Docs ran Liver function, test Gamma GT raised (80) but not severely high but higher than it should be, my doctor was unalarmed but sent for ultrasound

Macular Degeneration: When Does Dry become Wet?
I have already sent this post with photo. I do not understand what my Bio is and therefore cannot supply. I have been diagnosed with Macular Generation in both eyes. My mother suffered from Macular Generation so presumably it is genetic but in addition I was a very heavy smoker until 1999. I have

Rituximab and Denosumab
Has anyone had Rituximab for GPA and Denosumab for osterpororis ? What I want to know is are they compatible ? Has anyone experienced side effects? I am so unsure about putting more drugs into my body but I know I need to have the Denosumab as I'm at a high risk for osterpororis Any suggestions ?!

Lutein/Beta Carotene
I've just been researching Marshalllow Root (which is supposed to be good for inflammation) and read that people with Hashis should avoid Lutein and Beta Carotene, but I can't seem to find out why. Can anyone help please?

Mri scan of liver showing "an abnormality suggestive of HCC."
Hi. What does this mean - likely cancer? If not, what else could it be and what treatment would be used. We got told this today by letter, I don't think that is how you should find out such information. My husband is 60 with NASH liver disease, oesophageal varices and subclinical hepatic encephalopathy

Is there anyone like me?????
Hi. I was diagnosed with macular degeneration when I was 15 years old. I am now 46. I have been to several specialist throughput the years and this has always been the diagnosis. Now after reading a reply to someone else's post, I'm starting to think this is not possible. I was told by 1 or 2 of these

Personality change when drinking alcohol
Hubby was diagnosed hep c 20 yrs ago been drinking 90 units alcohol per week. Become very temperamental and aggressive. I am now living away from home. Would mood swings be due to liver disease? He is also very paranoid

End stage liver disease and kidneys failing
It has been a LONG journey with my dad to say the least. He has been an alcoholic for 15 plus years and has survived MANY near death/alcohol related accidents. His last drink was June 1 and his health has declined greatly over the past few months. (It's been declining but this is way worse) It's
