Enlarged Liver and Gallstones
Does this mean it is a
fatty
liver
? Or is this something else? Is this common with gallstones/gallbladder issues? Or does this indicate something else entirely? The doctors aren’t really answering his questions and just say his liver is “fine”.

Caring for Dad with liver cancer........
My Dad is 82, and was diagnosed in August this year. He'd been unwell for most of the year, then caught Covid in June and thankfully this led to some blood tests from his GP. He then collapsed and got taken into hospital where he was diagnosed with liver cancer. He has got 3 metastatic tumours, and

Unsure how to proceed
so first , I’m in the US not UK so every single little thing medical is $$$. I’ve had pain in the liver area off and on honestly about 3 years now . More towards the back and it’s not really pain as much as heaviness feeling or fullness idk if that makes sense. The last few months seems like it’s getting

Listed but improving UKELD
This is a bit of a strange one. Partner has decompensated cirrhosis, listed about 4 weeks ago. We cried with relief when he was listed - he has been so poorly and had a heart scare (that turned out to be nothing when investigated) so were SO SO grateful to be listed. However UKELD has improved slowly

From what I've been told by medical professions, they either make my liver disease seem very serious or no big deal. Anyone else?
I went to see a
liver
specialist who told me I had non-alcoholic
fatty
liver
disease, not cirrhosis. I'm angry that I was incorrectly diagnosed, but I'm glad it's not the former. I have lots of mixed feelings.

compensated cirrhosis
I know I’m the past year I’ve had lots of questions and concerns with the possibility of liver disease/cirrhosis. And this group has been very helpful. I’ve had multiple ultrasounds in the past few years. Some noting a minimally heterogeneous liver and the latest two note a normal appearing liver. I’

No figures
Reading all your helpful posts I realise I have no facts about my husband's condition. You quote test results, levels etc, and we have nothing. Could be England vs Scotland or USA vs UK,private vs NHS, but we've not been given anything. He went into hospital recently with ascites and I think

Food question
Hello everyone I have been diagnosed with pbc for almost 2 years now. I am not sure which stage I am as I am too scared to get the biopsy. I am guessing its an early stage as my bilirubin and albumin are in the normal range and my doctor said so far my liver is ok. My problem is that I am struggling

I am 55 years. I have undergone liver scan and other tests on October 4, 2022. My doctor told the liver condition already progressed to early cirrhosis. Is there anyone please advise me how can I reverse the condition. Has the condition already gone beyond the control? Kader

calories or .....
Should I reduce calories and eat normal, or should I completely stay away from bread, soda, fats, cheese and sugar for second-degree cirrhosis of the liver? Should I limit less than 2000 calories to make the liver work without getting tired, even if I eat bread, or does that harm it even if the calories
