Fatty Liver
Hello. I have recently been diagnosed with fatty liver. I have been a heavy drinker for at least 25 years. My question is: How long will it take for my liver to recover if I abstain from alcohol completely? I understand that there is no set figure but any advice is appreciated. Thanks for your help

Hi, Hope you are all doing OK. I can’t believe I'm here really, but by this us my story and would love to chat to others who share a similar experience. I was diagnosed with ulterative colitis in 2012 and was put on Azathoprine which worked - happy days. However, recently my blood platelets dropped

liver dialysis
hello Has anyone heard of this new treatment “Liver Dialysis’ apparently cleans your liver out of toxins, improves your bloods? I’m seeing my transplant team for the first time on 9th Aug and apparently I think I’m boarderline if I need a transplant, so was wondering if this treatment would be better

Good news
Whilst I am still struggling with getting help for my son, I had a bright spot of news this week. Had a consultation with my liver nurse, first time face to face since lockdown. My bloods have been great for several years, ultrasounds all good too. I had a Fibroscan as I hadn’t had one for around 4

Hi Everyone, A year ago I was diagnosed the NAFLD Cirrhosis to summarise Child Scale A, Meld 7 and well compensated. I was having an endoscopy for something else. Initially was shocked, panicked and experienced a myriad of emotions. I’ve just had a review after a year my first scan, and liver function

Meal sizes
I'm sticking to what I should n shouldn't eat and the same with fluid.My question is, is it safe to each larger meals ( again with the correct nutritional details ), it is just the larger the portion the more bloated I feel. This is only temporary and if I didn't have cirrhosis i would probably just

Secondary Hyperlipidemia
Hi I’m hypothyroid and my total cholesterol is raised which I’m working very hard to bring down with diet and exercise. I’m a very healthy weight and my bmi is fine. I have just learnt today that if a person is hypothyroid this means they have secondary hyperlipidemia, above normal lipid levels in

ARTIFICIAL LIVER
Good news , maybe we don’t have to wait for a liver transplant after all. I didn’t realise that machines existed that can carry out the function of the liver, at this stage they are external like kidney dialysis. Would think you have to hooked up permanently as the liver is always working.

NON CIRRHOTIC LIVER DISEASE
Hi all, I am trying to learn about non cirrhotic liver disease, unlike the more common NAFLD and alcohol related liver issues, there isn’t a lot of decent information to be found. As in my case LFTs always come back normal with ALT/AST only slightly raised, fibroscan stiffness low 3.5 kpa. But continue

I don’t understand my diagnosis as it’s changed from being overdosed by opiates (hospital error). Now it’s change.
In 2019 I was found on the floor & I don’t know or recall nothing. I could not see as I had balloon out so big that I was unrecognisable. It was a while to get my sight back but I was also told that I was had Liver failure. All my different consultants got together and realised that I was on so much

Bile leak
Good morning, what I'm going to talk about is rather yuk but, can I ask the group if anyone has had q problem with bile leaks. I felt my stomach burn it started under my ribcage on the upper right. I felt it run down through my stomach and my intestinal track and without it sounding horrible, it ended

Thiamin
Hi, my gp has prescribed Thiamine, she hasn't said how long I need to take it for ? I have a little bit of fatty liver, but that's all I know, what sort of question should I be asking and how worried should I be?
