PBC

Hi my name is Yvonne ,

I have been diagnosed with PBC with nodules throughout the liver. I was diagnosed after years of high liver enzyme readings. I'm on 900mg ursodeoxycholic and after 3 months meds the disease has slowed.

Here's hoping this keeps up.

Yvonner0,

That is wonderful news. I hope you feel better and better!! I wish I could take URSO. It made me sick. It seem to work great for so many. Keep us posted.

That's great that you are responding to URSO, but if I might advise, don't rest on your laurels! Do some research on the best way to help your immune system - I have recently paid to see a Nutritionist and have gone gluten free. Gluten is like 'throwing petrol on the fire' of auto-immune issues. Food for thought ;-) Good luck x
