successful PIP claim (higher) and what we did
Hi, thanks so much to everyone here who offered advice on how to claim for PIP. We have heard today my partner has been awarded the higher amount for both living and mobility and this has been approved without a physical assessment OR a phone call. This is what we did in case it helps anyone. FYI

Contraceptive pill
I’ve recently been prescribed onto this pill to regulate mood swings and periods. Does anyone know if you can take cod liver oil pills and multivitamins along side? Thank!

New to this group & Newly Diagnosed with HCC.
I just wanted to say hello to the group. My bio describes what I have been going through. My Budd Chiari Syndrome diagnosis really helped understand my reason for suffering with cirrhosis and decompensated liver. I am not a drinker and have been thoroughly tested for genetic disorders. When I was 19

Stage 5 renal failure plus dialysis and cirrhosis of the liver
Wondering if anyone else in the world is dealing with these two together. My husband is, and we're scared. We're hopeful, but doctors don't know how this happened other than being diabetic for decades. Never a drop of alcohol, but a heavy meat eater. Diabetes is in control, A1C too, but hemodialysis

Fed Up with everything.
I have been on haemodialysis since May. Having completed all the tests etc at the beginning of November, I was just waiting to go live in the transplant list. My previous consultant, who is now on maternity leave, said my results were good and she even said, I would probably receive a new kidney before
