We have seen the Heptologist
Finally the day arrived and he was great. He told us the the Child’s Pugh score was 10 and I can’t remember the name for,the other score but he said to be considered for Liver Transplant the score is 49 and my husband’s score was 51. He is putting him on to Rifaximin and wants him to reduce the amount

Hospital again aggghhh
Went to see my Surgeon-Consultant last week, CT scan not good (attached). After my lung operation in October 2018, most recent CT scan shows a large nodule and a few scattered in the lung. I'm in on the 18th Feb, they will go into the lung and have a look, best outcome is biopsies then treatment, second

FutureLearn Liver Courses and Mental Health
Some of you will know of the two online liver courses that were run by FutureLearn. These were "Liver Disease: Looking after Your Liver" and "Liver Transplant". I, like so many have done both these courses, scoring 91% and 98% which surprised me at the time. I was therefore disappointed to learn

Confused /scared about Covid 19
Hi there I’m guessing that a lot of people are in the same boat about Covid19. My husband recently underwent a stem cell transplant for ALL and is now taking immunosuppressant medication. I currently work part time in the retail sector and I’m really confused and anxious about what to do for the best

Coronavirus, a Fashionable way to die? medical care in America is broken, among the things that make me mad.
Terminal illness is a fate that awaits us all. We know not the pathways of our personal journey only that we will take one of those paths in a time not of our choosing. I live in the land of the chronically ill. It is that time between health and end stage disease. The Foundation's niche is fatty liver
