It has been a while since I have been on here..Being diagnosed july 1015 with aih and being told I had f3 fibrosis at that time..Well, I received a second opinion in Nov. on my liver biopsy and I was told that I am in stage 4, cirrhosis. I am on Budesonide 9mg, and in the past 7 weeks have started azathioprine. 25mg first 4 wks and now 50 mg ( my tpmt test showed that I am 2 times more likely to have side effects from azathioprine). in last the last 3 weeks my alt and ast counts have gone from the 80's to 150's. I am not doing anything different.. I also had an Endoscopy done mid Dec to see if I have esophogeus varices..Will not know results till mid Feb. Oh, yeah..with being in emergency last aug and diagnosed with left lung blood clots, I have saw a thrombosis specialist in Dec who has kept me on Xeralto 20mg till March 2016 when I see him again..he is talking about switching me to another med which involves daily stomach injections.. So upset. What else is in store re aih. What is HE?
Info...suggestions.. comments..
please.
Big hugs to those who need one....
