Reading all your helpful posts I realise I have no facts about my husband's condition. You quote test results, levels etc, and we have nothing. Could be England vs Scotland or USA vs UK,private vs NHS, but we've not been given anything. He went into hospital recently with ascites and I think

Food question
Hello everyone I have been diagnosed with pbc for almost 2 years now. I am not sure which stage I am as I am too scared to get the biopsy. I am guessing its an early stage as my bilirubin and albumin are in the normal range and my doctor said so far my liver is ok. My problem is that I am struggling

I am helping my freind appeal his DOLs through the COP and his anxiety is through the roof and is worrying himself sick about what will be asked of him. He has cirrhosis and Hepatic Encephalopathy

Fibroscan today
Hello, In Jan 21, I was told I had fatty liver. With Covid and everything, I next saw the consultant in August 22. In the time between appts I had gained 25kg due, in part, to gyms being shut and a thyroid condition that I had only just been diagnosed with (though had for a while.) Today I had a

Fibroscan
I am 55 years. I have undergone liver scan and other tests on October 4, 2022. My doctor told the liver condition already progressed to early cirrhosis. Is there anyone please advise me how can I reverse the condition. Has the condition already gone beyond the control? Kader

calories or .....
Should I reduce calories and eat normal, or should I completely stay away from bread, soda, fats, cheese and sugar for second-degree cirrhosis of the liver? Should I limit less than 2000 calories to make the liver work without getting tired, even if I eat bread, or does that harm it even if the calories

Should Alcohol Get a Worse Rap?
A bit out of the usual line of comment or 1uestion. Having never been a drinker ( can't stand the taste of it) I've always been bemused at what a big role alcohol plays in society. It's seen as a key aspects of most of life's big events, as well as being important as location of a social event, as a

Ascites / Paracentesis
I have posted before on how my husband has alcohol related cirrhosis. He stopped drinking the day he was admitted in the hospital, Aug 12, 2022. He remained there for 1 week. Since he has been released, his ascites has got worse. It has prevented him from eating and makes him very tired and hard

Is it too late?
Hi Everyone, New here. Around the end of 2020 early 2021 I was diagnosed with severe fatty liver through fibroscan f3. Doc wanted to further test by making me an appointment for a liver biopsy. Well, I guess me being in denial, stubborn and fairly young (41 then). I decided to just change my diet

Statins and PBC
I’m male and was diagnosed with PBC 12 years ago. I’m broadly asymptomatic but because of raised cholesterol levels (caused by PBC?) have recently been prescribed statins. I’ve read that statins shouldn’t be taken by anyone with liver disease and wonder if others have experience of this.

Happy days
just had a letter re my ultrasound which states that my liver looks a little fatty and there is no sign of any scarring. All my hard workh of dieting exercising and no alcohol has paid off and my appointment in six months will be to discuss if they need to continue with future fibroscans and ultrasounds
