please some help here, end stage liver cancer.
Dear BLT people, I hope you are all doing reasonably well. After my story 1.5 year ago about my misdiagnosed liver cirrhosis its kind of weird to say that I found out that my dad was diagnosed with liver cancer today. (he was never a drinker or fat or what so ever, he is quite old though, he is

Faecal loading
I have been given so many laxatives, stool softeners by my gp I am thoroughly confused and still haven’t got rid of it from September! I have Laxido, went up to 8 sachets for 2 days. Like soup. Docusate. Ispaghula Husk half a sachet a day. I have used syrup of figs, senakot, I don’t know if I

Been on this journey for 5yrs now, some of you may remember me posting on September 2022 that i had a stillbirth at 40weeks🤗.. . So we did another transfer last year end of June , was lucky that it did stick too and the pregnancy journey wasn’t that easy, was full of anxiety knowing no safe zone

Spider Nevis, does anyone else have these?
Short story, hospitalised over a year ago with jaundice and ascites due to alcoholism, considered de compensated cirrhosis, original fibro scan read 22.2kpa, now it’s 9 and I’m considered to have fibrosis and not cirrhosis although my liver is obviously scarred and my doctor is quite honest when he said

LFT Results - Help
I have had some tests done recently and I was expecting the liver would be an issue. I have been a heavy drinker for quite some time. I had full bloods done which were all fine. Electrolytes were also fine. The doctor said my LFTs were abnormal, I asked if it indicated Cirrhosis and he said he didn't

Mr Alan M
I have been missed diagnosed with liver disease for years I believe that I am still around because I do not drink and I am quite strict with my diet etc. I have also taken a lot of over the counter medication for liver disease. I believe that the disease has been caused by DILI / prescribed medication

Supplements to help liver
I had a blood test that showed raised ALT and then stopped drinking for 3 months and the repeat test had gone down to normal levels. I have heard that various things can help the liver, milk thistle, artichoke, dandelion etc. Is there any merit in any of these. I do not drink a lot but the occasional
