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

Sauna post-kidney transpant

rectal bleeding
hello everyone! I am a 28 year old woman who recently started having some rectal bleeding. It is not in my stool (as my stool is completely normal colored, not black or tarry and normal shape) first day it started when I wiped. Next day there was nothing, the following day there was blood in the toilet

low WBC Count & CMV Update
Okey, I haven’t posted for a while because I haven’t felt terribly well. I’m fairly sure this is due to the high dose of Valcyte I’m taking and have taken for all but 2 months since the first week of June. BACKGROUND I had a kidney transplant the week before Thanksgiving 2022. The surgery went well

Liver Transplant - Lest we forget
When a person embarks on a liver journey, there are many people involved in their treatment over possibly many years. There are a multitude of medical professionals who become involved.
