"Very abnormal LFT" + urgent fast track ultra-sound referral?
Morning all, I was wondering if anyone could offer some insight (or reassurance!) into some recent results I've had. My LFT were flagged as high back in June, Dr thought it could be due to really low vitamin D levels but after a 12 week high dose course of that (which is now fine) my liver function

Hi all, Following up on my mom's condition, she was diagnosed with PBC resulting in Cirrhosis two years ago.

Update on hubby Nov 2022
Hubby saw Hepatology Registrar yesterday. We have some great news to share. Hubbys liver is no longer Decompensated, it is now compensated 🎉 so he has gone from stage 4 ARLD to stage 3 ARLD 🎉. The hepatic encephalopathy systems have gone, so he is no longer on that medication. The Ascites & Odeoma

UNOS Regions
I'm considering being referred to another hospital for a preemptive transplant but both are in the same USOS Region. They are different states, one in KS and the other in MO.

concerned about stomach and diarrhoea
I have cirrhosis of liver not through alcohol, and now secondary bone cancer. Haven’t had to use lactulose because of getting diarrhoea. So.ndering whether it’s the food I eat? The blander the better I feel, or is my liver getting worse. So fed up with it all. And haven’t even started the cancer treatment

Hi there. I received a kidney transplant 6 months ago. We want to have one more baby (we had three pre transplant and conceived them very easily) but a recent test showed I pretty much have zero sperm. Has anyone encountered this, and if so, did you find any causes related to kidney transplant...medications

Contradictory information
So I'm just trying to understand and I'm not trying to be anal, but I find a lot of contradictions even here. These statements were made by PBCRobert. 8 years ago: There is much uncertainty when it comes to what constitutes a diagnosis of PBC. In the main, the concensus is that AMA positive
