Is this Terry's Nails? Am i Suffering from any of the Liver Diseases?
I am 23 right now, and have had this color of pale nails since birth. I have never ever thought about it earlier thinking that it's normal and since I am non-alcoholic I had a misconception that only drinkers get liver diseases... But today i came accross Terry's nails in internet and felt that the pictures

Moorefields Consultant
I had an appointment at Moorefields on the 14th February this year and my Consultant said i had pernicious anemia and that my GP was to give me B12 injections - well she will not do it - this is the third time in eighteen months that she has refused what the consultants say and they even send her letters

A Good Day
Saw my new consultant today & my new liver nurse & they were both fantastic. He explained everything clearly to me. He is trying me on Budesonide 9mg a day which is a corticosteroid & stays in the liver longer than pred. I didnt fancy using 6MP after the nightmare I had with Azathioprine. There was

Feeding tube leak? Is this common?

Waiting for blood and ultrasound results, suspected cirrhosis and portal hypertension
Had bloods taken February and Ultrasound March and am awaiting results. I gave up alcohol in February which I haven't found too difficult. The sonographer told me quite a bit, apparently pancreas, kidneys, spleen and gall bladder seem to be okay. There is some scarring on my liver but he said he'd seen

Planned c-section
I’m going to have a c-section, I’ve had 2 emergency ones previously. Could anyone tell me what happens at the hospital on the day? For example do you go in and get changed then straight to theatre or do you have time to unpack and get situated. How far in advance of surgery did you have to arrive etc

Debulking Surgery
Can anyone tell me what are the best briefs following debulking surgery? I know with a c section you need ‘big pants’ but what is best for a vertical incision? Thank you in advance.

Call out to liver cancer patients who have received SIRT
The British Liver Trust is currently campaigning on behalf of liver cancer patients – specifically we want to improve access to minimally invasive cancer therapies.

An long overdue update - baby Eliza arrived 16-2-22.
Hi sorry this has taken me so long to do. I had lots of replies and support during my pregnancy. I was induced at 39 weeks mainly due to her size being so big and I was worried about complications that are associated with bigger sized babies . I know people say growth scans aren’t always accurate- in

Rejected for liver transplant
This morning my partner was advised by the Royal free liver transplant assessment unit that he had been rejected for a liver transplant. This was on the basis of false information. The drug and alcohol nurse had advised that he was unwilling to allow RF to access his data from the drug and alcohol support

My husband has a bad rash
Hi everyone I haven't posted for a while but always read others. My husband (64) had NASH cirrhosis and had a liver transplant in 2017, when they also found he had cancer of the liver. His new liver now has fatty deposits as his Diabetes seems out of control. He is trying a new diet and hopefully

Options for PBC Itch?
Hello, I have had PBC for years with progressive itch. I am an "incomplete" responder to Urso and Ocaliva (on both). I take Cholestyramine but in the past year the itching has gotten significantly worse where I scratch all night, am scaring up my arms and legs and tear the dead dry skin off the soles

Husband recently diagnosed with decompensated cirrosis of the liver
Hi, Im new to this forum, and hoping for some support as I feel a little lost! My husband was admitted to hospital at the beginning of December 2021 with gross asceties and jaundice. It was a battle to get him to even see a Dr and I had to lock him in the house and force him to get help, as he was dying
