good morning As you know I have recently upped my supplements to include vitamin d, b complex, k2, magnesium and selenium. I already take cod liver oil on top of my prescribed fluoxetine, Levo, cerazette (birth control) and loratadine(antihistamine). Can I take everything bar the Levo at the same time

Is it getting better?
9months ago I had Alt 90, normal ast, high bilirubin, low albumin and low protein, I stopped drinking immediately, worked on my diet to the best of my ability, drink coffee everyday and I exercise every morning.... The doctor never did further tests but since then I’ve been using milk thistle, dandelion

Doc says: "Cirrhosis? Yes. Food restrictions? No." So confused. Advice?
I have cirrhosis. Surgeon saw it in CT scan & really saw it during hernia surgery so no doubt about it. But Liver function normal at this point say tests. I want to find out the underlying cause so it can be addressed. I do not want to inadvertently cause any more damage to my liver with inattentive

Ultrasound
I got my ultrasound report back and was told I had fatty liver, on the report it says the liver is normal in size and diffusely echogenic. Anyone knows what this means when I googled it it mentions cirrhosis

Monitoring Hepatic Steatosis
I’ve recently had an MRI scan of the small bowel and an MRI scan of the pancreas, liver and gallbladder as part of ongoing investigations into gut problems. One of the observations was that I have hepatic steatosis and a fatty pancreas with a possibility of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) -

Meal sizes
I'm sticking to what I should n shouldn't eat and the same with fluid.My question is, is it safe to each larger meals ( again with the correct nutritional details ), it is just the larger the portion the more bloated I feel. This is only temporary and if I didn't have cirrhosis i would probably just

ARTIFICIAL LIVER
Good news , maybe we don’t have to wait for a liver transplant after all. I didn’t realise that machines existed that can carry out the function of the liver, at this stage they are external like kidney dialysis. Would think you have to hooked up permanently as the liver is always working.

NON CIRRHOTIC LIVER DISEASE
Hi all, I am trying to learn about non cirrhotic liver disease, unlike the more common NAFLD and alcohol related liver issues, there isn’t a lot of decent information to be found. As in my case LFTs always come back normal with ALT/AST only slightly raised, fibroscan stiffness low 3.5 kpa. But continue
