Fibroscan score of 17.2 (NAFLD)
Hi everyone, back in December I saw my GP and had blood tests done for a different health issue (cardiology referral), and he phoned me up to say that my liver emzymes were high and he was putting in for an emergency referral to hepatology and a liver scan. Next week I was asked to come in for a second

Alcoholic cirrhosis Hepatic encephalopathy
Partner is currently coming round from being sedated due to Hepatic encephalopathy. The doctors say he is also withdrawing from alcohol. The upsetting thing is one of the first words he said to me when I went to visit was to tell me to f off.. I've since been back to visit and it's mostly abuse I get

Dr. Jones' Knowledge
Several times a week I want to share some of Dr. Jones' statements regarding PBC These are all taken from his book [u][i]The Definitive Guide for Patients Who Have Primary Biliary Cholangitis. I [/i][/u]think it's important to share some of the basics of this complicated disease. If you have any questions

Liver Cancer
I was diagnosed with liver cancer by my consultant yesterday (Friday 31st May 2024). They are going to take a liver biopsy in a couple of weeks as I am going on holiday next Monday. Then once this is done I will be having radiography. I am going to be positive and hopefully fight this all the way

pain in left side
Hi have Chorrosis of the liver and have been good up until today. I have felt discomfort in my left side and it goes up the left side of my back to my neck. I did contact my local gp who is going to do bloods on Tuesday as there extremely busy. Will it have something to do with my diagnosis? Or anyone

Nicotine…… a complete no-brainer.
Update most don’t know about nicotine, you should. Read my previous post if you’re wondering about it. I’ll soon be off c/l. I have experimented with nicotine and it seems to work better than the meds. My sense of smell is returning. I’m smelling things that I wish I couldn’t smell, lol. I forgotten

getting help with care
I posted before about hoping to take my partner on holiday - which is looking unlikely and also irresponsible. He has cirrhosis which is fairly stable, having paracentesis again soon - but he’s tried and weak and pretty much not able to do much. The trouble is that he insists he is fine, can look after

Hi - and welcome! My name is Donna - I facilitate this support group for The PBC Foundation - Health Unlocked. If you are new to your diagnosis, first of all, take a breath. It’s ok. We all, myself included, have been exactly where you are right now…. scared, unsure, mad, sad, and so much more. Stop
