Kidney transplant
Hi Everyone, I just joined. My kidneys are at 10-12 EGFR and I am striving to find a living donor. I have some resources to do so, but I am wondering what others have done to search for a living donor. I also wonder what others in this situation have done for transportation to a major transplant

Advice please?
Hi all. I just wanted to see if anybody has experienced the same as me. I am a 28 year old male. I used to drink very heavily for around 6-7 years. I drank vodka with lemonade and could get through a couple of litres a week following my dad's death (not an excuse but it is the reason I drank so much

Can LFT tests me normal with fibrosis of the liver?
Hi,I had my gallbladder removed a few weeks ago as I had gallstones which were seen on ultrasound after I'd had pain/pressure/a full feeling under my right ribs. During the op, the surgeon has seen what he has described as "excessive fibrotic changes in the liver". My GP has referred me to Hepatology

knocked sideways
Ive been reading all your posts but not actually written anything for a while because in my stupid head I thought we were plodding along even if it was at a plateau level. Kev was diagnosed with non alcoholic liver cirrhosis back in July. He also had sepsis twice and ended up in intensive care where

Problems with medication supplies
Hi. Since I recently swapped to home deliveries for medication, every 4 weeks some meds are missing or out of stock.I didn't have this problem when I ordered directly from the GP, changed over because I was struggling to get into town to collect my prescriptions. The messages from Lloyds Pharmacy says

tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and weight gain
I was contacted today by a liver nurse. I found out that I have been prescribed tenofovir. I started reading about it.

Blood flow through liver
Hello all I had a ultrasound just over a month ago but got results today showing a fatty liver and slow or low blood through my liver the nurse practitioner giving me my results could give me no reason as to why as by all accounts scarring wasn't seen only fat deposits. My liver enzymes have been rising

Is HE always inevitable with severe chronic liver disease?
My daughter has been told there is nothing more the doctors can do for her multiple hepatic adenomas. Transplant is not an option, due to serious underlying health conditions and also total lack of fitness . She has at least 15 of these tumours taking over her liver now. She has had a resection last

Alcohol related cirrhosis and drinking
I was diagnosed with cirrhosis in September 2023 after a fibroscan. I am considered compensated due to my lab work and no ascites or symptoms. I am an alcoholic and made the stupid mistake of drinking a glass of red wine at a Christmas party last week. Of course now I am hating myself and absolutely

Extreme fatigue. Any solution?
This is wiping me out. Honestly. It tends to start at about 5 pm and lasts for about 2/3 hours. I used to take Whey protein to counter it but this appears to not hit the spot. I’m utterly exhausted when this phenomenon strikes and am wondering if anyone has any ideas? I take B1 daily (Superior Source

bile ducts
I had a blood test few weeks back result was Alp 177and Alt 50. GP repeated them and they came back Alt 30, Alp 139 BUT GGT 105 which wasn’t tested previously. I paid to have an ultrasound scan which showed intrahepatic bile duct dilation of 3.6mm. Everything else was ok in terms of liver gall bladder

So fed up
Hi, I've got osteoarthritis and it's getting to the point where the can't enjoy everyday things. I can't walk far without both hips burning. My ankles aching. Can't pick things up without dropping them. Back aches, neck aches, knee pain and now I can't use my right arm as my shoulder joint is extremely

biopsy report, still waiting to see consultant.
hi all, had an email with the below conclusion of my biopsy, I have a very minuscule left lobe which they want to biopsy but were unable to due to the size. So the right lobe was biopsied. Until I see the consultant I don’t really understand the results, I know none of you are specialist or doctors

Coronary calcium channel score
Is statin prescribing linked to Coronary Calcium score? In late 60's my recent Angiogram was fine but had a CCS score of 25. From what I've read, Statins do not eliminate existing plaque, but stop it getting worse. Always ate healthy, since a child being faddy, cut off every bit fat from meat, wouldn'teat

Help and advice for mum
Hey All, My mum has hidden her drinking, liver issues and cirrorsis for 15 years as I’ve been living in a different country. She was taken into hospital last winter, and I was told it was related to her liver, but no real further detail. Attending a consultant appointment with her last week has unearthed
