Letter from Heptologist
HelloI had a letter from the consultant to say my recent fibroscan results indicates no evidence of liver disease and they would be discharging me. I had had a BLT fibroscan back in spring which was almost 12 and my GP referred me to heptology. Sadly during this appointment last month I never actually

Endo, adeno & c-section

This is my first pregnancy, I’m nearly 34 weeks and due to having placenta previa I have been told I will need a C-section. I am quite anxious about it & just wondering if anyone else has been

AST/SGOT 57
Greetings everyone, I recently took LFT and found out that AST level is above normal range and so is Bilirubin Direct. I met the doctor but he did not talk much and gave dose of URSOSAN 250 I am used to consume alcohol and have no excerise routine. I work in IT so mostly sitting througout the day.

Fibroscan
Hi everyone. I have been concerned about the health of my liver since February this year as I experienced some pain in my right side and bloating. I have had an alcohol problem for many years but recently it had got a lot worse. In my panic I saw the doctor who referred me for Lft. The results came

Psychotic Episodes
Just had a very successful liver transplant 8 weeks ago and am in the very lucky position to feeling better than I have in years. Now everything has settled into a nice routine I just wanted to raise awareness to post op psychotic episodes. I was warned that it is common for post-transplant patients

HE and Variceal Bleed
I last posted 2 years ago after being concerned for my mom and her drinking. She was diagnosed with cirrhosis and has now been alcohol free for just over 2 years. She has had 2 variceal bleeds in the last 4 months, both times being found by her partner covered in blood and within a few weeks of seeing

Endometriosis?
Hi everyone My journey is quite a lengthy one so I’ll attempt to shorten it by containing the most important info… when I was a teenager I had awfully painful, extremely heavy periods at times they would bring me to tears, this improved after having children but was still far from “normal” whatever

Spider Nevi
Former drinker. So I have noticed some red blemishes on my upper back. They are small but are not going away. I can't really see any blood vessels branching out from the blemish. Does spider nevi due to cirrhosis usually occur on the back? I have about three of them. I had slightly high liver enzymes

non alcoholic drinks
hi I'm new to all of this so I'm sure this has probably been asked before so apologies. Can I ask peoples advice/opinions on non alcoholic versions of drinks ie gin, beer etc. are they any better/safer for the liver? I know there’s no alcohol but still concerned there might be other things lurking

auto hep
please could someone advise I’m confused. To be honest these don’t really mean much to me but written down. Is these good or bad results. I’ve had liver biopsy last week and obviously awaiting those results, but here are the last more recent ones I’m on 5 Mg pred and 50mg aza. I’m not feeling well today

varices
I would like to thank all the people who replied the variety of experiences made me do more research and I found that Carvedilol and omeprazole are just as effective as banding, however I will ask for a further Gastroscopy in a year or two. As I’ve had a serious bleed before probably over reacted. Once

Preparing for a c section
Embarrassed to be asking this 😳 but what prep did you do for a planned c section down there eg waxing/razor? I don't know whether to book a bikini wax but it's been about 10 years since I've been for one and feeling quite anxious about it all 😱 I'm nearly 31 weeks pregnant

**Sensitive** Birth Announcement
Hello wonderful group, I have spent quite a few years receiving amazing support from this forum. I would read the birth announcement and feel a tiny bit of hope that some day, that will be me. Even though it felt like a million miles away, I’m so overwhelmed to announce that I have made it to the other

6 months routine HCC liver monitoring results
Hi all, Well at last I've had my 6 months routine MRI liver scan and liver monitoring blood results back after 6 weeks of worrying and fretting. No features of concern with scan and AFP bloods<1.3 normal. I'm just wondering if any of you know if the bloods for HCC are also for liver function aswell
