Hi, although I've been on here since last year I have not introduced myself. I was informed about this site when I was diagnosed with cirrhosis. So far so good, my health improved greatly when I was successfully treated for Hep C. This site has been an enlightening experience for me. I find meeting people

Nephrocalcinosis and Hypothyroidism
Does anyone have Nephrocalcinosis with Hypothyroidism. I'm trying to wrap my head around as to how they fit together as with the research I've found so far says that Nephrocalcinosis is more associated with Hyperparathyroidism. Does anyone else have this. And can anyone give me more info about this

Hi there, I think im on here for a bit of reassurance. Last year I started experiencing pain to my left side which travelled up to below my rib cage. I went to the doctors who first thought it was IBS and sent me packing, a few months later I went back and told him how this pain is getting worse and

Recent Diagnosis
Hi - I was just diagnosed with Hep C this week. My husband immediately got tested and his results came back negative. He has been my only partner for the past 7 years. I successfully gave blood in 2013, so I believe I can narrow down the infection timeframe to the past four years. I have never done drugs
