Living with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC)
in Health ·
I finally tracked down a thread that actually hits home for me. It’s not perfectly aligned with everything I need, but I’ll take what I can get... My husband started bleeding from esophageal varices back on February 4th, 2009. That was the moment we truly realized he was dealing with advanced cirrhosis. We had honestly brushed off the earlier warning signs because his liver enzyme tests were hovering just about at the normal range. But looking back, there was yellowing of the skin, swelling in the legs, ascites, hair loss, and even breast tissue development... Anyway, I won't ramble too much, but my husband underwent a transplant this past February. He’s doing wonderfully now, though obviously, he's staying strictly on his medication regimen. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if there is a specific sub-forum dedicated solely to transplant recipients? And please, if anyone has questions about anything I've mentioned here, feel free to ask.
