Removed from Transplant
Sadly I have been removed from the lung transplant list . Harefield say the pulmonary hypertension I have has worsened so much that I wouldn’t survive surgery. I have no idea what will happen next. I’m on 24/7 oxygen, my lungs have approximately 10% capacity and I have no idea what to expect. My respiratory

Pulmonary Hypertension
I’ve just returned from a pre lung transplant check up at Harefield. Last seen in November when all was ok except pulmonary hypertension was noted. The pressure was 40 mm of mercury. Normal is 25. They weren’t too bothered as walking to the room could have raised it. However today I needed a wheel chair

IBS-C
I went from IBS-D to C. I was doing pretty good with Metamucil every night but lately is not working. I started taking few times a week Miralax but the last few days I go to the bathroom to pee and when I clean myself I have poop on the paper, its horrible. I had a colonoscopy and everything as good.

Rejected for liver transplant
This morning my partner was advised by the Royal free liver transplant assessment unit that he had been rejected for a liver transplant. This was on the basis of false information. The drug and alcohol nurse had advised that he was unwilling to allow RF to access his data from the drug and alcohol support

Don’t know how much more I can take!
Don’t know how much more I can take, Not Liver related just needed to talk to someone who’s not involved. As a few of you know my Hubby was diagnosed in December with cirrhosis after many months of uncertainty being told it could be serval different cancers. Then in January I get told I am heading for

My husband has a bad rash
Hi everyone I haven't posted for a while but always read others. My husband (64) had NASH cirrhosis and had a liver transplant in 2017, when they also found he had cancer of the liver. His new liver now has fatty deposits as his Diabetes seems out of control. He is trying a new diet and hopefully

Massive setback…😡😢😡😢😡😢
Just got word from the transplant team that they now consider me too high a risk for a double lung transplant. As some of you may remember the assessment work up flagged up a calcification build up in a heart vessel ( LAD) which needed sorting. I subsequently went to the Harefield for angioplasty and

Options for PBC Itch?
Hello, I have had PBC for years with progressive itch. I am an "incomplete" responder to Urso and Ocaliva (on both). I take Cholestyramine but in the past year the itching has gotten significantly worse where I scratch all night, am scaring up my arms and legs and tear the dead dry skin off the soles

Holiday Insurance
Hello, I am looking to get holiday insurance to Greece following a liver transplant in September 2020. I have contacted a number of recommended insurers and am shocked at the variation in price for similar cover. For a 10 day cover, this has ranged from £550 to £1300! I am happy to give anyone who is

Reoccurrence
Hi Ladies, I received my PET scan results yesterday and it confirmed the beast is back! It is in a lymph node in the pelvis. It’s going to MDT today to discuss whether I have a second surgery and chemo or just chemo. Chemo will be carbo and doxorubicin. Has anyone experienced this combination of drugs

To do KT or not?
To those of you that has had a kidney transplant, do you think it is worth to do it, given all the possible complications and the high risk of developing cancer by taking immunosuppressants ? I am contemplating on undergoing pre- emptive KT but with of these possibilities , I am so nervous. Thanks
