portal vein pressure test
Hi everyone. I havent posted for a few weeks . my partner Nick has now had all his tests, scans and a biopsy on his hhc tumor to confirm that it is actually HCC. He has been told that he cannot have ablation, which is what he wanted to have, because of the position of the tumor. He may possibly be

New Blood Thinner for Stroke Prevention
Hi all, Some exciting news for those on Blood Thinners for AF. Abelacimab is a monoclonal antibody given just once a month by subcutaneous injection. It is not cleared by the kidneys, doesn’t require dose adjustments, and is not affected by other drugs. It achieves near-complete 99% inhibition of

Blood flow through liver
Hello all I had a ultrasound just over a month ago but got results today showing a fatty liver and slow or low blood through my liver the nurse practitioner giving me my results could give me no reason as to why as by all accounts scarring wasn't seen only fat deposits.

Possible kidney disease
Hi friends, after a recent flare-up I got some routine testing done, and one of the kidney markers showed up in a urine test. It showed micro-proteins, or mircoalbuminuria, which is different to the protein that shows up for a UTI. Apparently, the microalbuminuria means the kidneys are leaking, which

Is HE always inevitable with severe chronic liver disease?
My daughter has been told there is nothing more the doctors can do for her multiple hepatic adenomas. Transplant is not an option, due to serious underlying health conditions and also total lack of fitness . She has at least 15 of these tumours taking over her liver now. She has had a resection last

Supraphysiological Androgens [SPA] Promote Tumor Suppressive Activity of the AR Through cMYC Repression and Recruitment of the DREAM Complex
New study [1]. I have struggled to understand how Denmeade’s BAT (Bipolar Androgen Therapy) depends on supraphysiological levels of androgen (testosterone = ~2,000 ng/dL), considering that Morgentaler’s saturation model has it that androgen receptors [ARs] have all the testosterone they can use at

Saliva cortisol test: should I talk to GP?
These are the results of my recent online purchased cortisol tests. The midday one was actually just above zero, the evening just below 1 (I think). I took the morning one at 6am, as I wake up stupid early all the time, and im wondering if it was too early. I have hashimotos, and take 150 levo per day

Do you know your pulse?
Your heartbeat is the most fundamental rhythm in your life, signalling the regular pumping of your heart as it propels blood carrying oxygen and nutrients to the rest of your body. We take the regular beating completely for granted, never giving it a second thought until the elegant control process

biopsy report, still waiting to see consultant.
hi all, had an email with the below conclusion of my biopsy, I have a very minuscule left lobe which they want to biopsy but were unable to due to the size. So the right lobe was biopsied. Until I see the consultant I don’t really understand the results, I know none of you are specialist or doctors

She was taken into hospital last winter, and I was told it was related to her liver, but no real further detail. Attending a consultant appointment with her last week has unearthed

Compensated liver
I have went from ddcompensatd to compensated liver disease since being diagnosed in August 2023. I keep seeing prognosis is 9 to 12 years. Is this correct or can you live past 12 years. I haven't had any alcohol since diagnosed

Confused and seeking clarification
Hi folks . . . I have attached a letter from Hepatology which (to me anyway!) appears to contradict itself? In summary . . . a US in September 2021 showed increased parenchymal echogenicity (PE) due to fatty liver. Follow up bloods and a CT in April 2022 revealed nothing further. I then had a telephone
