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.

Fibrosis/ cirrhosis diagnosis
Bit of a long tale I'll try and condense. About a year ago I had two episodes of excruciating pain in my lower abdomen. Sent for camera at each end which found diverticulitis and Barratts osegephous. Told to lose weight and avoid certain foods. That was it. No further flare ups. No problems. Go back

Still no symptoms
Hi Nearly a year since being told I had decompensated cirrhosis, sadly I've not been able to stop the drinking but have given up the opiates. Still doing my best to pack in the drink but it's hard. cold turkey for opiates is so easy compared to alcohol. I still want my drugs but I can tell myself no

Bone marrow transplant possibility and leriglitazone update
An update to which I had previously posted; ,I went to London and met Doctor Robin Lachmann. He is going to start me on the drug soon then I will need to go bk to London after being on it for 4 weeks so they can tweak the dosage. He views this more of a temporary solution though and I think has concerns

This time last year
on the 22nd of December my partner went into hospital for what I thought would be an over night stay having suddenly developed Jaundice and ascites (although he had been ignoring symptoms of bruising and tiredness for weeks). I was able to visit him for the first time on Christmas Day, he was part way
