Longevity
I am very lucky was diagnosed with pbc in december 1998, I have taken
urso
since that date. I do suffer with fatigue and recently the itch has returned but fingers crossed only when I am tired or hot. I amso lucky to still be here and just push pbc to the back of my mind and keep going, I am 72.

The rise of LFT
Just had my consultant letter to start
URSO
nervous of the side effects. Also my ALP gone from 135 in May to 158 in October. Is it normal for it to rise so fast. Normal top of range is 130.

My specialist thinks I have PBC at age 19
Medication isn't helping me and I've been on
URSO
for the past 10 months now. Any advice would be much appreciated🙂

I'm new here
I was diagnosed about 25 years ago and have been taking
urso
for the whole time. My elevated enzymes were 600 when i was diagnosed went to down 110 within 6 months...recently rose to 150 but dr doesn't mind. I never knew the itching was part of it and the fatigue!

Acute kidney infection
I have been diagnosed for many years but the condition is under control at present with
Urso
. I have recently been hospitalised with an acute kidney infection , although I have never even had a water infection in my life. This escalated rapidly without any warning and was quite frightening.

Thinning Hair
Hi Everyone, My doctor upped my
Urso
to four tablets at night. Since then my hair has got thinner and the texture has changed, its silky and limp. Im hoping that this is not
Urso
related but probably is. Any suggestions? Kandypat ?

URSO and Severe Gas
I was diagnosed in Sept 2012 and put on
URSO
. I have always suffered from extreme gas since I was a teenager. It has nothing to do with what I eat...it comes from stress... Has anyone had a severe increase in their amount of gas while on
URSO
.

Checking back in to report on this crazy ride...
In the meantime, I am on
URSO
for the PBC and my liver labs are in the normal range now. I cannot tell you how happy this makes me. 6 months on
URSO
got me into the normal zone. I have zero side effects from the
URSO
.

PBC, Tired, Moody, & Fibromyalgia???
I was diagnosed about 1 1/2 years now, and have been on
Urso
for that long. The fatigue is still a HUGE problem, and it makes me such an unhappy person.

Fibroscan 4.7
Had my consultant appointment this morning who confirmed PBC and given me
urso
prescription to start when my blood results come back. While there had a fibroscan with a reading of 4.7 which she said is normal?? In. Scale 1-7 does it mean higher end of normal or is it not that sort of scale?

Gastritis
Briefly looking through Google there seems to be a connection with taking
Urso
. Has anyone else suffered with gastritis while taking
Urso
? Thanks all.

Change of tablets
Hello I was diagnosed with PBC two years ago and have been taking
Urso
since then and been ok. I also take Warfarin as I have a heart condition. My GP has suggested I could come off Warfarin and change to a NOACs which is a new type of blood thinner.

Urso side effects
I've been taking the
Urso
for 4 days, I've had a terrible headache all 4 days. I've taken a few doses of ibuprofen to try to manage it. I've also had stomach cramps, diarrhea, a low grade fever, back and neck pain. Can anyone tell me if these symptoms will let up or is this permanent?

Feeling deflated
All my blood works were within normal boundaries which is great as the
Urso
is obviously doing its job. But every other thing I tried to discuss he told me was not connected to my PCB...
