NAFLD 1 year on
What I am doing wrong. Diagnosed with NAFLD a year ago. Changed my diet, lost weight and eat healthier. Had scan last week and still have mild fatty liver. My doctor is of no help and support to me. I’m getting upset and anxious.

Private fibroscan?
Hi. I posted last week, the surgeon performing my laprascopic gallbladder surgery has seen fibrotic changes in my liver about 4 weeks ago. My most recent LFT'S (in April) were largely normal, bilirubin raised slightly (consistently for years) alongside slightly low platelets and slightly raised mean

I am now 24 years out from my kidney transplant. I remember it as if it were yesterday! Getting the "call" at 2:30 AM and having to be at transplant center by 5:30...and then not taken to surgery till 3:00 PM. Had a lot of time to "stress out". Picture is of me hiking in Arches National Park in September

I was the first robot assisted kidney transplant at Mayo Clinic. I have to say it was fantastic. I have about a 2

Vitamin D Result
Hi, I’ve been supplementing with 4,000 iu Vit D and here’s my latest result. I take co factors of Vit K2-MK7 and magnesium. I have 2 queries I hope you can help me: 1) Is 127nmol/l sufficient (I have hypothyroidism and I have a poor conversion) 2) Should I be adding Vit A? I’ve read that Vit D

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

Update from a worried mom.
He has been down to the hospital in Plymouth that start off the process for a
liver
transplant
and is now waiting for an appointment to go again for three days to have all the tests etc to see if he would be up to having a transplant...so that is keeping him going.

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
