T4 to T3 conversion.
Hi all, I recently had a blood test done and I have a feeling my t4/T3 conversion rate isn't good. I took the test early in the morning,. no food or drink from the night before. I regularly self inject B12 as I have pernicious anaemia. I supplement with D3, magnesium and omega 3 oil. For the past couple

Bruising, HE and Itching
I’m newly diagnosed with cirrhosis from NAFLD and trying to sort all this out. What causes bruising? I have normal platelets, albumin and INR. Why do I have bruises in odd places? They’re in areas where I know can’t be from bumping into something. Another thing I have is brain fog and insomnia,

Supplements - are they worth trying for liver disease?
Has anyone with fibrosis or cirrhosis had any improvement from supplements? Just wondering if it’s worth trying any natural supplements since there are no pharmaceuticals to treat cirrhosis.

update
just wanted to share the latest. You remember when I last posted I was going to Dallas for an mri/mre after a different hepatologist did a fibroscan and said stage 4 fibrosis. My regular hepatologist was in disagreement and sent me to Dallas. Radiology report said possible early cirrhosis. Scared me

Heights Smart Supplement - should I stop? Advice
Hi guys, After recently finding out I have Hashimotos (going to the Dr on Thursday) I have been taking stock on what I take and whether it is beneficial to me or could cause harm. I take the Heights Smart Supplement and wondered what you guys thought of what is inside it. I was mainly worried because

Is carvedilol making you cold?
I recently had my Carvedilol increased to 6.25mg twice a day. Lately, I am freezing to the bone. I turn my heating up and up and am still cold when everyone else says its like a sauna. I just wondered if anyone else has this? It could also be my recent addition of diabetes medication, Sitagliptin. Never

Worried about blood tests
Hi, I have had mildly elevated liver enzymes since 2019. I am female, 45, BMI 24.6 and I suffer from fibroids that cause me to have extremely heavy periods and I am often anaemic. I don’t drink or do drugs. High LFTs were first picked up during routine blood tests and my doctor said not to worry about

Anyone else have weird symptoms from cirrhosis?
Recently diagnosed with F3 fibrosis/cirrhosis. I do not yet have ascites, jaundice or esophageal bleeding, which I understand are the signs of decompensated liver. I do have extreme fatigue and weakness and dull pains in upper abdomen. I also have other weird pains everywhere. Pain in lower back, feet

Update on hubby
Partner had his colonoscopy today and they gave confirmed he has Bowel cancer now too. How this hasn't been picked up earlier after all tests he's had I really don't know! But how will this affect his liver? Nobody has mentioned his liver since the tumour was found, they were talking about referring

Mood swings
My husband has a decompensated liver. Recently I have noticed that he gets angry very quickly whereas, when he was drinking he was very placid He has been told he doesn't appear to have H.E. so are these mood swings liver related or would it be more likely to be his abstention from alcohol? I am treading

Ibrutinib and Hepatitis B
Hello, my 72yo dad was recently diagnosed and he’s supposed to start treatment with Ibrutinib today. He had HepB as a child and I know that is a major red flag. The doctor is not very transparent about the risks and we’re freaking out. Does anyone have experience and suggestions with this? Also what

Why is

not considered serious to health? I went to a specialist and they did an Ultra Sound and said I had
fatty

with little damage, so told me to lose weight and sent me off. I am also being treated for RA with prednisone and Hydroxychloroquine. Both hard on the liver.
