Do Any Of You All Have Other Autoimmune Disorders Along Side PBC? Do You Have Other Organ Involvement Including Intestinal,pancreas,gall B?
My mother had sarcoidosis and osteoporosis and high blood pressure. She was never diagnosed with PBC, however I wonder, is PBC a thing that is passed down in family genes? I have PBC Osto and high blood pressure. I was just diagnosed 3 months ago, so do not know alot about it, trying to find out all I can. My doctor is fantastic and is always there for me
Hi Stephanie, I have Vitiligo, atrophic gastritis and 2 others. Gallbladder removed in 2019 which is what has lead to PBC as my newest diagnosis as the pain never went away... From the outside, people cannot tell. But I feel like a trainwreck inside and my joints hurt alot.
So far no other organs involved for me. As for other autoimmune disorders I am HLA-b27 positive, I am being treated for Nr-AxSpa, basically it means axial spondylosis that is not showing up on imaging. I have degenerative discs, osteoarthritis in back, SI joints, and fingers with a strong family history of autoimmune disorders including Ankylosing Spondylitis, RA, and psoriatic arthritis. My daughter tests positive for AMA but so far no elevated liver enzymes.
Should Those With PBC (and Likely Additional Auto Immune Diseases) Get Flu Or Covid (or Other) Vaccines? Seems Differing Thoughts
Ursodiol And Bowel Blockage
Do You Personally Feel Able To Work Full Time With PBC?
