Post COVID issues
Hi ,I'm 57 with Cirrhosis (diagnosed 2015 after being informed a blood test in 2007 was pos 'Hep C' with v/high viral count/chronic). In 07/22 I was imobilised with Covid which for 3 weeks absolutely knocked me for 6. 08/22 my GP felt a LFT was needed as I wasn't getting any better. Results were enough

ggt 700
Hi, got a ggt reading of 700, I’m so worried about this, I have been a drinker in the past but as my levels have been rising I have been giving it up. A couple of wines on Xmas eve & new year but no more since & before that I had nothing for 5 weeks. Does this mean I have cirrhosis? Anyone in the same

Fluid restrictions ASCITES
My serum sodium is 137 mmol/L. Completely in normal range (133-146). I am taking spironolactone 300mg and furosemide 80mg. My question is how much do I need to restrict fluid intake for ascites due to cirrhosis?

Jaundice and headaches
I'm on the
transplant
waiting list with PSC/advanced
liver
disease. I've had several episodes of jaundice before and it usually led to an infection/hospitalisation as it does for so many of us.
