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

liver resection - nearly 3 years on
hi, I had my liver resection in sept 2020 due to a large liver adenoma (tumour) inside that had ruptured (unknown to me that it existed). Nearly 3 years on, I still get so much pain around my scar which is all the way across my abdomen. In the last few months, my pain has been particularly bad around

Transplant and BKV Realities
I received my kidney transplant 8 1/2 months ago. The surgery went so well and the transplant has been a new lease on life in so many ways. As I have posted here, I have dealt with a near-constant onslaught of infections (C-dif x2, UTI, Sepsis, BKV, CMV), the most recent resulting in 2 weeks spent in

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

Famous Kidney Transplant People
I am watching Modern Family (rerun and the series is now ended) and remembered that Sarah Hyland, the oldest daughter, Hailey, of Claire and Phil on the show, was transplanted with a kidney when she was younger by a donation from her father. It failed and she got another transplant.I read that she said

How much can one body take?
As if 2 strokes in 15 months plus a double lung transplant isn’t enough I have now been told I suffered a mild ( thank the Lord mild) heart attack recently which I wasn’t aware of. “Possible inferior infarct- age undetermined “ is their medical term for a myocardial arrest. Suppose on a positive note

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

So I'm trying to find ways to get motivated to exercise. I want to lose weight in preparation for a transplant. I have no donor yet, but I was told I would gain weight from steroids taken after your transplant. Can anyone give more insight on that? I at least want to try. I'm on my second week of clean

Following on from my earlier DVLA post.
Hi all, Yesterday I received the disclosure forms from the DVLA regarding reporting Insulin use etc and excessive tiredness etc. As mentioned in my first post the topic of Cirrhosis came up, I was told that it is a reportable condition, now I may have misunderstood the advisor as to whether it was

Update
Hi, my partner is still in hospital with what we were told was liver failure /decomp Cirrhosis. They seem to think its now Alcoholic Hepatitis as his last US scan doesn't really suggest Cirrhosis and he has no ascites. He is still yellow and is having a colonoscopy today. The consultant has also said

Good day all, It's been a while since i posted and a few peeps had reached out so thought I'd provide an update. Here's a link to my original post detailing my chronic liver issues. Since then, a liver biopsy confirmed cirrhosis, most likely due to autoimmune condition. https://healthunlocked.com/
