G P telephone consultation
My GP rang to review my blood tests. All were normal apart from an elevated GGT. It has been elevated for a long time which is why I was referred for a Fibroscan and this scan showed Cirrhosis (17kpa). As I have mentioned previously this was alarming news as I had never drank and had a lower BMi.

Good morning to you all, I would really value your opinions on the letter I received yesterday from gastro ( to my doctor) basically it said bloods are still normal and liver screen was unremarkable which I know is good as it means normal so I’m really pleased with that, I just wish I knew what was

Someone recently asked me about taking Urso after my transplant and the return of the disease for me. I can't find the post but I wanted to answer. I have taken Urso since I was 35 years old. I am now 73. I have had no real problems with it all these years luckily. About 25% of those who have a liver

High LFT results
I had my first 6 month appointment with my liver nurse last week. As part of the review I had a routine bloody test for LFT. My previous blood test was on the 14th Dec 23 and my numbers were gradually reducing. I just had the results this morning and pretty much all my levels have increased including

Hi.....again
Hi everyone, My partners liver cirrhosis had disappeared - to look at him you wouldn't know anything was wrong, he's on medication and for a while everything was good. Now he's developing a hard tummy again, I'm now worried that something is very wrong as he hasn't drank since he went to hospital back
