Have diagnosis now
Got a letter from consultant now and it is confirmed that I have alcohol related cirrhosis. Consultant said "The key here though is not so much how much scarring there is in the liver, but how the liver is functioning, and on your liver blood tests your liver is functioning pretty well at present.

IVIG vs Intralipid
Hi ladies, this is more for anyone that’s had immune treatment success… my question is, has anyone NOT been successful with Intralipid but been successful with IVIG? About to have my 3rd transfer with Intralipids and my reproductive immunologist said that if this one doesn’t work, we have no choice but

*Sensitive* - OE Testing update - 11dp5dt
Hi HealthUnlocked Fertility Warriors! I hope everyone is hanging in there. After 7 rounds of egg collections in 2019 (aged 42) and 2020 (aged 43), I ended up collecting 6 PGS normal embryos which I froze. I then took a break over Covid to recover, physically and mentally. After much preparation: weight

advise on how to manage the derma (skin) with DM
I've been told that skin rash/ulcers are the most difficult to treat . Has anyone had these issues and if so, how much time are we talking before improvement? Any medications that worked better than others? Azathioprine (imuran) made my skin worse, just an fyi for others. I'm already on hydroxychloroquine

Not injecting IVIG due to low IGA
Hi, after 9 days of fever, two negative PCR tests, and taking oral antibiotics, I had to be admitted to the hospital because my fever did not stop, After intravenous injection of antibiotics in the hospital and numerous tests, to my surprise, my PCR test was positive…. The result of the antibody

I wonder if anybody got Evusheld in the UK.
I am immunocompromised. I am on ibrutinib for 9 years and although I am progression free, my immunoglobulins have declined to a point that I needed IV IG. However, I stopped since Covid and I got back into constant antibiotic treatment. With Covid I live in fear dispute using protection and isolation

Swollen optic nerves - both sides
Has anyone had swollen optic nerves? I noticed a misty area in my left eye. My optometrist sent me straight to ER. My spinal fluid level is good - 16. 2 CT scans were negative, MRI showed nothing relevant. I do not have headaches or other symptoms. Except my eyes feel full. They think not

CD19 CAR-T cell therapy for B-ALL achieved remarkable efficacy with a complete remission of 70–90%
This looks interesting but way over my knowledge base. Perhaps some of you super brains can figure this out. In recent years, the increasing advancements and applications of cellular immunotherapy have enabled the use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, and it has emerged as an efficacious

Which blood test results do you watch?
Hello everyone - I have been dealing with fatty liver for a couple of years now. The CT and US show some cirrhosis, but the fibroscan indicates no cirrhosis, only the fatty liver. My liver enzymes are in range. In 2020 I had some abnormal immunoglobulin readings, and elevated white blood cell count.

Safe to have kittens?
We are contemplating enriching our lives with two yellow kittens. I have high-risk cll, successfully treated with daily ibrutrinib and an ivig every 4 weeks. Covid destroyed 40% of my lungs in 2020. I am 73. On paper my health sounds awful, but I exercise daily and eat healthy. Last summer I climbed

How careful do I need to be when on IVIGs??
Hi all, for our next cycle I will be given IVIGs in an attempt to suppress my NK cells which we’ve found are in the high range. I won’t be taking steroids/intralipids, just the IVIG infusions. My question is around just how careful I need to be when on the immune suppression treatment?? Our doctor
