Quick question
Before being diagnosed with AIH I had an ultrasound scan which showed gall stones and a lesion on my liver, I then had a MRI scan, apparently the lesion was 'benign looking'. Does the lesion mean I have scarring on my liver?

Gallbladder related Discomfort in upper back before and after eating
Hi. Earlier this year I had a stay in hospital due to having a gallstone stuck in the bile duct and having an infection. I had an ERP procedure but looks like it passed itself. I was alright for a while but I’m now experiencing a strange uncomfortable sensation in my upper back before and after eating

Dizziness?
Last time I went to the Walmart pharmacy to pick up my Urso the said this prescription came from a different lab. I have been on Urso 2 years now and probably several different labs but this one is just awful. I got so dizzy last week my husband took me to the emergency room. I felt like I was doing

Possible gallstones and treatment
Yes, I am rather new to this community. 8 months ago I had an episode of severe itching to the extent I had to go to emergency clinic. With no diagnosis at the time, I later saw my general practitioner and my LFTs were quite elevated. After going through extensive tests the last several months (endoscopy

Mucus clearance from only one side
Hello Hope everyone is well. Been some time since I last posted because thankfully I have had a relatively healthy 18 months. I managed to get through winter without even the smallest hint of a sniffle. I now seem to have picked up a minor infection/cold from my 2yr old grandson and I’m very congested

Advice needed
Hi, I’m currently on the waiting list to have my gallbladder removed after a scan discovered several large stones. My question is, after a gallbladder attack last Saturday night I have been left with a persistent stitch-like pain under my ribs on the right side. It has not gone away & is only relieved

Little White Bumps on Chest, Shoulders, Back, Arms, Jaw etc with PBC?
Hi Everyone, I was diagnosed not quite a year and a half ago. I have been taking Urso since then and I'm currently waiting for my follow up appointment to see how I am reacting to them. I keep finding little white bumps on my skin, with what seems like tiny, hard white cores. They are not like spots

Itching
I haven't been on this site for some time, so please forgive me if you've heard this all before. I was diagnosed in 2011 as having PBC, but I was itching constantly from about 2008. I was put on Ursofalk, which relieved a little, but not much, of the itching. I was happily taking my Ursofalk until

I am a 64 year old woman and I was diagnosed with PBC in 2012. I had high LFT's and it was confirmed with a liver biopsy. I was put on URSO and my LFT'S came down. About 2 years ago my numbers went way up. I have been very fortunate as I don't experience the itching or extreme fatigue. My gastroenterologist

Cholecystitis (Gallbladder Inflamation)
My GP told me when she diagnosed gallstones that it was very unlikely that any surgeon would consider removing my gallbladder because of its close proximity to the liver. I should add that by her own admission my doc knows little about cirrhosis, which is my claim to fame on here! However, recently
