I am pretty familiar with PBC, used to see some patients who got transplanted for it.
I had my hepatologist test me for PBC, blood work for AMA, it came back negative. The reason I thought i may have it is because I also have high cholesterol.
My hepatologist told me PBC is not usually associated with CC but PSC is. I know lots of our member’s have PSC (primary sclerosing cholangitis) and that is a well known risk factor for CC.
I just read your latest blog entry. I love all the dog pictures! They are cuties.
Glad to hear Lauren is improving and look forward to hearing her surgery is set.
So glad to hear she lost so much weight.
Take care,
