Has anyone had fibro scan ? They say my kpa came back at 16.8
What should I do next ?I found this information that I hope you’ll find helpful https://www.mskcc.org/cancer-care/patient-education/understanding-your-fibroscan-results. Have you been able to discuss your results with your doctor? Since they know your full history and situation, they’d be best suited to go over next steps with you.
I’m also including some general information on living with and treating NASH if you’re interested https://nashdisease.net/living-with and https://nashdisease.net/treatment. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help with. Sending well wishes, Julie (team member)
I have sharp pains below my ribs on both side. But my gi says nothing to do with my liver. Rest of my drs say nothing but talk to your gi. Gi says talk to your drs. I've given up ,just have to live with it
how frustrating! I’m sorry your doctors haven’t been more helpful. I hope you find this article of interest https://nashdisease.net/living/permanent-damage-pain. Hopefully you’re able to get some answers and relief from the pain. Best wishes, Julie (team member)
how long does the procedure take?
Hi! Which procedure are you wanting to more about? -Julie (team member)
I have constant pain under my ribs, lower back,wraps around my hips. I keep telling my drs but Noone cares or seems concerned. Should I be concerned??
it can be really frustrating feeling dismissed or unheard by your doctors. The pain you’re describing sounds similar to what one of our advocates describes in this article https://nashdisease.net/living/permanent-damage-pain. I hope you’re able to find relief and answers. Best wishes, Julie (team member)
