Raised Gamma GT - won’t come down despite no alcohol
Hello I am hoping there will be people here who have some expertise and able to advise me further if possible. I have had several repeated blood tests where my Gamma GT result has been raised.

Kidney issues post liver transplant
Hi I'm 1 year post liver transplant, but my kidneys seem to be taking a hit. My GFR is reducing at each blood test. It is now 39 and drops by about 5 every time. They've not said if it's now CKD but I'm worried as the internet says 39 is stage 3B. They have reduced my tacrolimus to 1mg twice daily,

Advice needed - deranged lfts

Ultrasound of liver....sit upright for last part of scan
As the title says in for my yearly US of liver. Usually i go for the scan and lay on my back and both sides while scan is done. This time, at the end, i was asked to sit upright off the side of the bed while my sonographer scanned the liver area, while i sat there. Does anyone know the reason for scanning

Is a Fibroscan more accurate than ultrasound?
Hi, I'm new here and this is my first post. I wish I'd found this site and forum years ago! I was diagnosed with PBC eight years ago and have been taking Ursodiol ever since. A Fibroscan showed cirrhosis at that time with a reading of 35 kPa. I had scans every two years since then until my last reading

How to encourage someone to seek medical support (who has turned their back on this due to prior negative experience with consultant)
Hi, I'm hoping that someone can point me in the direction of a positive source of support for someone who has turned their back on formal medical support because on a negative experience with consultant. They were hospitalised with liver failure back in 2011 and formally diagnosed with cirrhosis. There
