Super Confused
In January 2011 I was told I was AMA+ and I had PBC. In December 2011 I had a lap band removed and while they we in there I requested a liver biopsy. The results showed I had PBC. I refused any medication for PBC because I was not taking medicine that "may" help slow dow the progression of PBC. Last

Ascites Long Term
Hello All, I've had Ascites now for eighteen months. At first I confused the symptoms with a hernia that I had which has since been repaired. After a visit to my GP, he told me I had IBS and gave me some pills to alleviate that. Two weeks later I was back at the GP's. This time he examined me and said

Thank you everyone for your kind words. i will stay on 11mg pred for the time being. I am really struggling with the side effects of the various pain killers, blood pressure meds and water tablets; everything seems to list nausea, constipation and sleepiness as a side effect. The nausea in particular

Biopsy and Fibroscan
Hello I was diagnosed with PBC in May after they removed my gallbladder and took a liver biopsy. My questions is...the biopsy state I was Stage 1 but I received a phone call from my gastro yesterday who told me I am at Stage 3 and probable Stage 4 according to the fibroscan. I'm not sure why the discrepancy

What Causes Itching
What else besides elevated bilirubin would cause itching with liver disease? My bilirubin level is normal but I itch like crazy sometimes.

Referral
I'm in stage 4 cirrhosis but confused about my doctor referring me to a transplant clinic while in a compensated condition! I thought it had to be absolutely an emergency for a transplant.

Travelling with Insurance
Hi folks, I was diagnosed with Decompensated Cirrhosis 2 years ago and have had regular routine 6 month MRI scans and bloods done which have all shown no features of concern and that my liver has fully recompensated. I mentioned that I was hoping to travel abroad to Spain and asked if I was OK with flying

liver pain in side. Terrified
I am a heavy drinker who had a scare earlier this year where I was told I had reversible liver damage. I was sober for a month and bloods improved. I foolishly slipped back to my old ways of very heavy daily drinking and now have pain in my right side. I am seeing the doctor tomorrow and can’t see how

Is APS hereditary?
I'm just wondering because my dad's keeping getting these nose bleeds and it's just not stopping. He's just had an operation to cut the artery and doc said that will be the end of nose bleeds. Well it's not. He's got what looks like clots coming out of his nose. So I've said maybe mention me with APS

I’m usually quite positive

Unsure what to do?
Yesterday [Friday 22nd Sept] I recieved a call from the Hospital treating my Cirrhosis to inform me they have had a request from my Heptoligy Doctor for a Biopsy due to them not being able to determine the cause of continued elevating blood results, they have had a cancellation for Monday [25th].

Could I have portal hypertension
Looking for any advice please. Not sure if I need to seek a second opinion from another Gastroenterologist. I had symptoms that could point to Cirrhosis or stages leading up to that. URQ pain, fatigue, malaise, GI issues with poor absorption (streatosis looking stools) and bloating, weight loss, shortness
