Do I really have PBC?
Sorry, I know this question has been asked before but I'm seeking a bit of clarity. I'm one of the lucky ones in that I have no ill health related to PBC and I do feel for those of you suffering so much. Back around 2001, I was found to have AMAs after a blood test for another reason. No unusual LFTs

Blood in Urine
Over the last couple of months, I have had blood in my urine on three occasions. No other symptoms. Is this down to my cirrhosis, and if so, what causes it? I've had cirrhosis for six years and this has only recently started to happen. I should add that I recently had several scans to investigate a

Best blood values
Already learned a lot in this forum and from other sources about optimal blood values for Vit D and B12. Just wonder if similar recommendations exist for zinc, selenium, iodine, iron and omega 3 and 6? I’m on WFPBD, take some supplements and check my blood values every three months, some more expensive

Liver fibrosis
I have liver fibrosis after having hepatitis c. I got the hep c through contaminated blood products namely factor 8. I am suffering from pain under my right breast, which may be gallbladder issues. The Doctor told me it can't be liver pain as the liver has no nerves therefor can't get pain there. This

Sense-check, Hashi Swings, and inability to lose weight
I just wanted to sense check my plan for optimising my health, considering my latest blood tests have arrived. So scroll down to blood tests, as first, I am providing all sorts of contexts for reference. In short, I have Hashimotos and have been testing at least twice per year with Medichecks. Bio

mercaptopurine
I've had another flare of my AIH and they've started me on mercaptopurine daily. I was wondering what help & advice any 6MP users could give me. Experiences, side effects, do's & dont's? I'm nervous about taking it after having a bad reaction to azathioprine. Feel okay so far tho.

Hello, I’ve got a relative who suffers from cirrhosis badly and isn’t in a good health. Unfortunately they refuse to quit the booze and a transplant is out the window. A ticking time bomb you could say. This relative is not very honest and seems to act as if there’s no problem however will attend his

good platelet count
my husbands platelet count is and has been really good at 277. I have heard elsewhere( not professionally but from an excellent source) that he is unlikely to have cirrhosis with this reading. He was diagnosed with decompensated cirrhosis earlier this year with many symptoms. He is almost back to being
