please let me hear your positive stories re going from decompensated to compensated
My partner was diagnosed with cirrhosis in Dec and underwent a medical detox from alcohol. He was very poorly and remained in hospital for 3 weeks. Since then he has been eating well and not drinking. His bilirubin has come down from 256 to 60 and his blood platelets look good at 160. The doctors

My story
I haven’t been on in awhile but wanted to update everyone. My liver specialist from the liver institute Methodist hospital told me this morning was our last visit unless I needed him again. I retired from ER nursing in 2017 bc I was diagnosed with pbc and possibly nrh according to the pathology report

So, what is it? NAFLD, Fibrosis or NA Cirrhosis?
Hi everyone, so I had a biopsy in December last year and the results weren't great. My letter from the consultant at the hospital said that I scored a 5 out of 6, where zero is an absence of fibrosis through to six, which is likely or definite cirrhosis (this is using the Ishak scoring system), which

Liver problems and INR
Hi Everybody, hope you all having a nice day. Maybe if you read some posts of me before I sometimes doubted my diagnose for Liver Cirrhoses. The diagnose was over 2 years ago, but still things are just not adding up for me. Yesterday I watched a video again, where they give 14 signs of liver cirrhosis

Best Liver scan after Fibrascan..
For the past 2 years, have had a progressing NAFLD, despite changing diet, exercise, no sugars, drinks, losing weight etc etc. My bloods ie LFT's all seem well within range. I had expected my KPA score to go down over 2 years, but it seems to be going in the other direction. Consultant seems to think

I recently developed red hot patches on my hands and they can be quite painful when I get stressed and sweat. They are also very stiff. Am very terrified I have cirrhosis and have a doctors

Wellness poster for my stay at hospital
I am due to have a stem cell transplant and have prepared myself for my stay at the hospital. It’s been suggested that I can decorate my room and can use posters to put on the wall. I wonder if anyone could suggest somewhere online that they would know of that I could find any reasonably priced posters

I'm a bit Scared, to be honest😥
Dear All, Several of my neighbours, we only have eighteen flats, have had/ currently 'have' COVID. Now I know that this 'Variant' isn't as Serious- to Most People that is! However I am Immune Suppressed, due to BOTH Vasculitis AND a Kidney Transplant (in July 2013).Clearly IF I DO contract, this disease
