Fatty Liver and Low White Blood Cell Count
Had a Gallstone attack back in 2007 that led to my Gallbladder being removed. 2 months prior my blood tests showed elevated GGT (79 and 97) and Bilirubin (26 and 23). All other LFTs normal. 2008 I was then diagnosed with Fatty Liver. GGT 112, Bilirubin 22 and ALT now elevated to 52. It’s been a struggle

How long for FIB4 results?
I had my most recent bloods on 31 October. All function tests came back within normal range, though Gamma GT high. I am still waiting on results of the FIB-4 test. Does it always take ages to come back from the lab? Without the FIB 4 result I have no idea what/if any fibrosis is present in my liver

One year on
Thought I’d give a little update on my ARLD journey. After 1 year of initial Fibroscan results which were CAP score 316 and 28.9 kpa elastography score, which shattered my world as it wasn’t expected. My latest results after abstaining from alcohol, which I may say has been oh-so difficult after

update on hubby 4
He continues to make slow improvements. Good days then bad days. He has been confused at times but that is improving slowly too. He is able to walk into the kitchen and bathroom using his walker. Eating small meals and generally more conversational. I saw my GP and he stated that my husband is still

I know MRI is much better in diagnosis so I am taking it as a final verdict.I'm on Tenfovir from last two months. Noticing couple of things such as little discomfort on

Abuse of alcohol and liver concerns
Hello everyone! Hope I find you well. Long story short I've used to love drinking and I've always had tolerance towards it so I was consuming large amounts during my early 20's. Now Im 27y male and for the past two years I was literally addicted to alcohol and consumed alcohol almost everyday. At first

Very new and very confused
Hi there. Hubby has been a drinker for years and it appears that it has all caught up with him. He had his 5 year MOT back in August and was prescribed Folate, B12 compound and Thiamine but no info was given during his telephone consultation. About 3 weeks ago, I noticed his eyes were a bit yellowy

Fibroscan
Have been diagnosed with fatty liver disease through ultrascan, but cannot get fibroscan on NHS because blood tests are normal. Any advice please? Prepared to go private but does not seem available in Nottingham area.

Constipation ....
Sooooo, while there are some things which are considered "unmentionable", they are often the things where a chat can be very helpful. Many of us are on heavy pain medications, most of which cause constipation. Personally, I can go eight days and end up with nausea and stomach pain. Yes, I have tried

Quick deterioration
4 weeks after his last admission hubby eventually agreed to go back to hospital. I'm shocked at how frail he now is, shuffling across to the bathroom. Can't get a sense of his liver health. Apparently diuretics stopped, giving him albumin, and there is some kidney damage? They then have to reinstate

Marmite and cirrhosis
Serious question. Next to tabasco, Marmite is one of those foodstuffs that I really couldn't do without. I know the vit B12 in it is very good for your liver but I'm also aware that it's full of salt. I've been avoiding asking this question probably because I know what the answer will be but I really

Post Liver Transplant
I am worried about how my hands, body and voice always shaky and is been 5 weeks after my operation. I get dizzy when I am standing at one place for long. I would like to know from someone who has been in my position if I honestly will go back to being the same. Like going gym, lifting weight, playing
