Spirinolactone question
I am on the liver transplant waiting list (6m and counting.) Last year I was put on spirinolactone to deal with ascites, which it has done very efficiently, however, I have just had a call from the specialist's secretary asking me to stop taking it... I will keep an eye on my weight and any swelling

Well, I have sarcoidosis folks
I had my biopsy surgery and just got the results. It is pulmonary sarcoidosis. I have been told that my pulmonologist will be calling me to start treatment. Most likely - steroids :( Steroids and organ transplants are the only treatment options I am 90% certain I will have my breast implants removed.

Does anyone know much about this? I’m very early on in pregnancy but heard about this years ago when beother in law had to have a stem cell transplant. I’m not sure if it’s available in Northern Ireland. Does it have to be donated or can it be froze for possible future use for child?

Drug induced cirrhosis
Hi. I’ve been reading posts for around 6 months now. Reason being for my mum who sadly passed away 5months ago due to cirrhosis. My query is has anyone ever suffered cirrhosis due to antibiotics. My mum was prescribed 6 courses of a drug named flucloxocillin which I now know is known worldwide to cause

10 Years With CLL: Two Trials & Lifesaving CAR T-Cell Therapy
I rarely cross post to Patient Power but today there is a story by a fellow CLL patient I have known for many years as DebinOz. She is one of the few I know of with a more aggressive form of CLL than mine. And I think she has more air miles than my 750,000 with United. Len - See: https://patientpower.info

Cystic Fibrosis - Functional Bile Duct Cells Generated From Stem Cells
