Traveling on a plane with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension
Hi I’m new to all this. My partner was diagnosed with liver cirrhosis back in may 2022 and spent 7 weeks in hospital. In February this year he was taken into intensive care with a GI bleed and needed blood transfusions and was told he had portal hypertension. He had a follow up endoscopy 4 weeks later

Steroid injection in big toe joints
Pain and swelling in big toe joints caused by RA are restricting my ability to walk well. I take omega 3 oil, have bespoke insoles and wear wide low lace ups to accommodate padding to protect the joints and alleviate the pain. My gait is “off” as I walk to favour my right knee and hip affected by RA

How can I increase my T4?
I was diagnosed with CKD because of my GFR and
fatty
liver
from an ultrasound. I have been working on improving all my numbers. According to my numbers, the only issues now are my thyroid (atrophied per US), my GFR and my glucose is slightly elevated but is coming down.

Testosterone Injections
I recently had my blood sample taken and results reviewed by the Men's Health Clinic. They couldn't do anything for me because my testosterone levels were in the 'normal' range (specifics below). To be honest they didn't take me seriously from first contact due to me not being in the 50+ age bracket,

Catch-up?
Hi all How's everyone doing? Not much activity here recently..... I've been doing some spaced apart 3, 4 and 5 day fasts to try to target some stubborn fat on my tummy. I've not been water fasting; I've been making broth from grass fed cow bones and lamb bones and drinking that daily. I'm also still

Prognosis is not so good.
Hello all, So we had an appointment this morning to see husbands consultant.He was aware that he had been declined for a transplant, due to other health issues. So had a chat, and we are now managing the complications that go with decompensated cirrhosis, and to keep him as comfortable as possible.

Scan Results
The cause for my Cirrhosis of the

is due to non-alcohol
fatty
liver
disease (NAFLD). Also, the gastroscopy I underwent demonstrates small varices (a dilated vein) within the oesophagus (gullet).

Relationship with alcohol
I was reading through some posts and answers and got thinking. Is the saying ‘once an alcoholic always an alcoholic’, really true. I certainly had a problem with alcohol. I drunk far too much of it and it became far too big a part of my life. To a point where I got very unwell. I was terrified during

Home blood testing
Just have a quick question, I have had an ultrasound and found to have a
fatty
liver
(falls just inside acceptable apparently) and a simple cyst. I only found out this from the nurse as I had gone to see her about something else.

Omega 3's to reduce some MPN issues?
Two of my favorite experts did a podcast: https://hubermanlab.com/dr-rhonda-patrick-micronutrients-for-health-and-longevity/ I already take DHA and EPA but since listening I've increased my doses and changed to another supplement (and now keep it in the refrigerator). This and taking more Magnesium

Pro Resolving Mediators : reduce neuro inflammation and are easily accessible
I learned of Pro Resolving Mediators from Chris Masterjohn PhD. Is anyone using Pro Resolving Mediators? Quote: “In PD, data suggest SPM are able to cross the blood-brain barrier, inhibit microglial activation and decrease induced markers of inflammation” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles

Some advice please
Hi I have joined as my brother has end stage cirrhosis of the liver along with ascites & other complications due to very heavy drinking over many years. He is now at the stage where he can’t walk & refuses to let me contact his gp or any other health professional. Any offers of advice would be extremely

Muscle tension
Hi, Have been suffering from severe anxiety for a little while. My main symptom is chronic and painful muscle tension throughout my whole body and dizziness. It never leaves me and makes it hard to relax or do anything normal. Any tips gratefully received.

Once a month and really, once a month
Hello I have been diagnosed with Fibrosis Stage 3 but they are treaing me as though I have early Cirrohsis. I've been told to abstain alcohol forever. Now if I truly have the willpower to treat myself on one day a month to a few drinks and it is only one day a month, would it really do any harm ? I guess
