Finally! Some good news.
To make matters worse I didn't tolerate the
URSO
. I got super sick on it and they took me off of it after 3 weeks and a loss of 12 lbs.

Questron question, if I may?
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with PBC 3 years ago and started on
Urso
. Only have a partial response to that but it's better than nothing and I'm hopeful for the new alternative. Long before I knew I had PBC my main complaint was painful joints, especially my feet.

I really need some advice
I ask do you have other PBC patients and are they on
Urso
, he said yes. I walked out of there totally confused and gobsmacked. Thinking "What was that all about". Sorry for the long essay, but any thoughts anyone?

What are all the different types of Urso?
After reading through some of the posts, I've seen where some people take a certain form of
urso
and others take a different type. How many types of
Urso
are out there? The label on my bottle says generic for
urso
forte. I take (2) 500mg tablets a day with food.

General health outlook
I'm also now on
Urso
but yet to see if I am responding to it. My question really to other people out there with PBC, has anyone with a similar profile to mine had PBC for many years and kept it under control and not started to develop other symptoms?

Taking part in the NHS march
Feeling a bit tired today but having lived in a country where you have to pay for all medicines at cost price then I believe I was marching for my life as I will never be able to afford the 240 pounds a month for my
URSO
!

Pain/discomfort after eating.
I suffered this a little pre diagnosis (11/2016) been on
urso
3 maths now wonder if it's connected. Stupidly ate a cream cake once suffered the consequences for about 20 mins after won't be doing that again. Scarily it puts you off eating.

Just diagnosed (caught literally RIGHT when disease started)/ possibly linked to acetaminophen?
I know of
Urso
but I'm also under the impression it doesn't work for everyone. What are considered "decent" levels to be at for the lft? Will I know at my 3 month checkup whether I'll respond to
urso
or could it take additional time to respond?

Feeling a little frustrated
On
Urso
and my blood tests have stabilised. Have had episodes of liver pain and had a scan last yr which was clear. My husband has dragged me to Drs today (I'm a v reluctant patient) because I've got constant pain over my liver, sometimes sharp but usually griping like labour pain.

Ursodiol prices
Urso
is not covered by my medical insurance, because it is not considered "preventive". It is very expensive. For generic brand, I pay about $500/3mo supply, 1000mg/day. I wonder if this medication covered in other countries? Is it expensive or cheaper than in the US?

Finally had Hepatology appt Today after 3 months of waiting.....
He wants me to try the
URSO
again at 1/2 the dose and slowly work up this time. If I have the same reaction, he will try another
URSO
that is made with different fillers. We will see. 😧 In the meantime, I guess I'm not a wait and watch type of person.

Side effects of Ocaliva
My Alt and proteins have always been higher than standard despite
Urso
but not too high. Latest liver biopsy showed inflammation to the liver. So my gastroenterologist prescribed Ocaliva 5mg daily along with 1000
Urso
. I took it for two days and I am having some side effects.

LFT's have returned to normal...do I still have PBC?
My question is...is this the
URSO
(or herbal stuff) working...or is there a chance I don't have PBC. Also, can PBC be reversed if caught early enough as it seems I was luckily caught very early. I'm also wondering whether it's the
URSO
causing the itching I'm getting.

Skin pigment changes
I started
URSO
early January of this year. I had horrible itching (how I got the ball rolling on my diagnosis). I think
URSO
added to it. My doctor started me on Prevalite and within a week my itching had gotten better...not great but better.

Ocaliva
This is a new drug for people that have PBC that take
URSO
and it doesn't work for them. Just checking if anyone has been taking this drug. I am having extreme itching.

Fatigue
I was diagnosed a year and a half ago and take
urso
since about six months before diagnosis. I experience all the regular symptoms i.e. itching, fatigue, and severe joint pain. As of lately though the fatigue, and pain has gotten so extreme that I can barely keep myself up during the day.
