I am guilty of having a bottle of wine spaced from friday through sunday so about a glass an evening over a weekend but am a non drinker the rest of the time. I have had positive gastro parietal cells come

Hi all. My partner Nick has had his fibroscan score which is 32.8, CAP score is 289, child - pugh 5A, UKELD 45. Anyone know if these scores are dangerously high? I am trying to prepare myself for whats to come. Also, his stomach is swollen most of the time now. I am presuming this could be ascites

Severe hepatic steatosis
HiMy CT scan says liver has smooth contour, 'severe hepatic steatosis', no focal liver lesion or biliary dilatation. I phoned the helpline and was recommended to ask for fib 4 test but my gp says they don't do that. Just had normal full bloods and liver panel taken. Waiting for the results but I fear

Advice on medication
Over the last couple of weeks I have had pains in my stomach and for longer than that regular bladder problems. Always feeling I need to go to the toilet. I am on 3.5 mg of prednisolone and am wondering if it has anything to do with the other pills I am taking each day. 1 -20 mg omeprazole, 1 - 1000

Unknown Liver Disease or from Alcohol?
Hi About 8 weeks I had two alcohol binge sessions over the weekend on an empty stomach. (I only drink 3-4 times a year). Following this, about 4 days after, I started developing hot and cold flushes, sweating, hives and pruritus - especially on my stomach, poor wound healing. Pale colored stools.

ultrasound result
Hello, me again! So my partner has had his letter telling his ultrasound result. It says that there is 24mm irregular area withing the left lobe of his liver. It also says that this could be nothing more than focal fat or a cancer. He now is going to have an urgent MRI. I am so scared now. After

good morning everyone. Saw my doctor the other day and I am so confused. He said I have fatty liver but not liver disease. What does he mean
I haven’t got much faith in my doctor really as he has overlooked my enlarged bile duct in the past. I noticed the report so I requested another ultrasound 12 months later. The size had stayed the same but they noticed fatty liver. The doctor isn’t concerned at all but I am having problems dealing with

Ascites and edema gone. Belly remains.
Hope all of you are well. Quick question. Have any of you had ascites substantially decline and yet your belly remains hard and round? Will this ever go away? Walking and exercising strenuously. Lifting weights , sit-ups and walking approximately 10 miles a week. Eating much healthier. Haven’t drink

Husband with Cirrhosis
Hi all. I’m new to this group and after some help. My husband is in alcoholic recently diagnosed with Cirrhosis after an internal bleed, bruising, fatigue and spider veins on his upper body. He’s an alcoholic. He’s in total denial about it all and is still drinking every day (about 2 cans of Stella)

Help to understand what is next...
I am not sure how quickly the
liver
failure
may progress as the "few weeks to months" projection is a varied time period.

Finally some progress
Those who followed our Journey, know this is such a painful process of grief. Two weeks ago, the hospital wrote it would not change the factual information in my wife's chart. In her chart it had been written she had Biopys proven Nash Cirrhosis, which led doctors looking at ultrasounds that said

Cirrhosis fully reversed.
It's been quite a while since I last posted. It's been 3 years since I was diagnosed with liver cirrhosis and and it's 6 months now since the very doctors who diagnosed me with cirrhosis confirmed that it is fully recovered and ran fibroscan twice to confirm that indeed it is gone. Only one thing now

blood tests vs ultra sounds
I am so confused! I have been diagnosed with cirrhosis after a stay in hospital with ascites. What do they pay more attention to the scans or the blood work? It’s so confusing. They say at scans they are for only surveillance of cancerous lesions but can they tell if the cirrhosis has gotten worse even
