Weight Gain and Urso
Did any of you gain weight after starting on
Urso
? I feel like since I started
Urso
, my weight has been creeping up and I feel "puffy" and my clothes seem to be snugger then usual.

Bloating in stomach area, weight gain
I went a year without taking
Urso
, due to no medical coverage. I lost 30lbs but have been back on
Urso
now a year and gained some back. I am understanding from the comments
Urso
and Ocaliva has side effects of weight gain, correct? Also, the fatigue is bad in morning and evenings.

For the most part physicians have given
up to a year to decide if you are a responder or not -- has the
Urso
decreased your numbers significantly in that time period.[/i] [i]

Common Bile Duct
Also my weight is 50 kilos taking 250mg of
Urso
3 times a day equivalent to 750 mg. for so many years, my specialist reduced my
Urso
to 500mg a day, told me my liver is ok. Is 500 enough for my weight? Thanks for any opinion, suggestion. Take care, be well. From, Barotac Nuevo

URSO QUESTION
If you are fortunate enough to be an
URSO
RESPONDER, and all liver enzyme tests have returned to normal, does that mean
URSO
is working to HALT the progression of PBC or has it just slowed down the progression?

Jones' book sometimes people will stop taking their
Urso
because their liver function tests have returned to normal. If your liver enzymes have returned to the normal range it just means that the
Urso
is working. The PBC isn't cured - it is just controlled.

low iron and ursodiol
i’ve been on
Urso
for about two years now with good results and bringing my numbers back to the normal range. In the last year, I’ve been dealing with significant anxiety and I’ve not had this before.

Thursday's Thoughts
Today I want to go to something very basic - your
Urso
dosage.
1.
is the proven first line treatment for PBC and should be started as soon as PBC is suspected
2. The dose is
[u]
always
[/u]
based solely on your body weight - NEVER symptoms or lab results.

Should something be done with a “moderately high” ALP?
I have been on
Urso
for nine months, but only on the optimal dose for four months. My GGT lowered from 569 to 225 as well.

Urso and gallstones
My concern is from reading the
Urso
leaflet it states that you should not take
Urso
if you have gallstones but I have not been advised to stop.

Just checking in...
For someone who may have started with results in 5-6-700 or more, then after taking
Urso
for awhile, they may have numbers in the 300's. What an improvement for them! It's not really beneficial to compare numbers. I had a friend the other day who, after taking
Urso
, her alk phos was 160.

Brain Fog
Started
URSO
immediately, but at 750 mg
URSO
daily which, at 61 kg, may not be enough. I dont have tests again until mid May. Can it still have some positive effect? Can brain fog be a result of
URSO
not working? I can write a post one evening and by the next day forget i ever wrote it!

Why would my Alk Phos go up after just starting urso?
I just started taking
Urso
and have been on it now close to a month my recent blood work shows that my Alk Phos has increased rather than decreased.

mildly heterogeneous parenchymal echotexture ultrasound results
On
urso
, have bloating and a little weight gain. I am wondering if anyone has this result and did they feel sick or go down hill quickly after this stage? I am of course waiting to hear what my liver doctor has to say.
