Made to feel ashamed
I'm sorry if this is insignificant but I have just had a 'health review ' at my local doctors and made to feel ashamed and embarrassed and absolutely awful about myself.I have liver cirrhosis, I was ill November 2022 and had numerous scans and it was confirmed by a fibro scan. It scared the hell out

My precious daughter
***HELP NEEDED DESPERATELY*** My precious daughter was unfortunately diagnosed with Multiple Hepatic Adenomas in November 2021. She has currently got 12 of these tumours in her liver. In January 2022 she had a liver resection, as the largest tumour was hemorrhaging at the time. The right half of her

Biotin
Hi please can you tell me how much biotin would affect blood test results. I am waiting for a doctors appointment , they have told me it will be between 2 and 4 weeks, but could be sooner. I am currently taking B complex supplement which contains biotin. I know the guideline is don't take for 7 days.

my mum - end stage liver failure
I just wondered if anyone may be able to offer any advice in our situation. My mum was diagnosed with cirrhosis 8 years ago and gave up alcohol. Unfortunately she started drinking again 4 years ago. She was in hospital for 6 weeks earlier this year and diagnosed with hepatic encephalopathy. I thought

Itching due to medication??
Hello, I had a liver transplant 3 years ago and take tacrolimus, mycophenolate and prednisone for anti rejection. I have recently had a very itchy localised rash on my neck which I have been treating with hydrocortisone cream. This is having no effect. I was wondering if it could be a reaction to any

Fibrosis?
Hi there. Continuing my journey to recovery, I was today told by my doctor that I need to have a blood test to see if I have any scarring of the liver. My LFT’s are better than they were in June last year. An ultrasound in August 23 noticed a fatty liver. So, can you still get scarring of the liver

Hi! I was recently diagnosed with non alcoholic liver disease a few months ago. I’ve been suffering really badly with my hay fever this year. I’m currently on 120mg Fexofenadine, I have been for several years, and Dymista nasal spray. I was just wondering what antihistamines others with liver disease

Contrast ultrasound for liver hemangioma?
Hi me again. I had a normal ultrasound which detected a possible liver hemangioma. The hospital are sending me for a contrast ultrasound to confirm. Online it looks like an MRI is the usual way to confirm this. Is a contrast dye ultrasound as effective? Thanks.

ultrasound result
Hello, me again! So my partner has had his letter telling his ultrasound result. It says that there is 24mm irregular area withing the left lobe of his liver. It also says that this could be nothing more than focal fat or a cancer. He now is going to have an urgent MRI. I am so scared now. After

good morning everyone. Saw my doctor the other day and I am so confused. He said I have fatty liver but not liver disease. What does he mean
I haven’t got much faith in my doctor really as he has overlooked my enlarged bile duct in the past. I noticed the report so I requested another ultrasound 12 months later. The size had stayed the same but they noticed fatty liver. The doctor isn’t concerned at all but I am having problems dealing with

Ascites and edema gone. Belly remains.
Hope all of you are well. Quick question. Have any of you had ascites substantially decline and yet your belly remains hard and round? Will this ever go away? Walking and exercising strenuously. Lifting weights , sit-ups and walking approximately 10 miles a week. Eating much healthier. Haven’t drink

Husband with Cirrhosis
Hi all. I’m new to this group and after some help. My husband is in alcoholic recently diagnosed with Cirrhosis after an internal bleed, bruising, fatigue and spider veins on his upper body. He’s an alcoholic. He’s in total denial about it all and is still drinking every day (about 2 cans of Stella)
