I was diagnosed with Primary Biliary Cirrhosis my bile ducts are closing therefore causing Cirrhosis, But have Horrible pain in Pancreas seems during an EUS the students were working on me where they pushed a stone from gall bladder in my pancreas for 5 years so unlike you young lady I can not get a liver transplant, I have no support system I do not test any more seen all NYC best docs no treatment no nothing none of Docs will call me back out of fear of malpractice, God bless you ! Hope you can get a liver transplant !
I know all the test you are referring too. I went to med school but did not finish because broke my leg! I found the site lacked knowledge also,You are to young any talk about transplant? Hope so they gave me 10 years to live 8 years ago?But I am 54 now! PBS is similar to Nash God Bless you D
Hi Mariah,
Mayo Clinic Connect is an online community where patients can share experiences and ask each other questions about any health issue. You can read more about Connect here https://connect.mayoclinic.org/about-this-community/ and about the role of moderators and patient volunteer mentors https://connect.mayoclinic.org/about-our-moderators-and-mentors/. We know that you did not join Connect to make money. We hope that you joined to ask questions of other patients, and to feel less alone. That's why we are here. You are on a hard journey and I'm glad that Rosemary and Molly have reached out. But it is beyond the capacity of a patient to patient community to provide a diagnosis.
Understanding your numbers is best discussed with health care professionals. It must be so frustrating not to get answers when you know something is wrong. You mention that your insurance doesn't cover care at Mayo Clinic. Have you investigated Mayo Clinic's Charitable Care and Financial Assistance?
