Guest guest Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 A friend wrote to me asking urgently for help. I don't know enough about her health problem and so I ask this group. Maybe somebody can give a helpful advice: (Which I will forward to her...) " I was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis (cirrhosis, stage 3). I am still searching for the cause of this, and have been seeing an acupuncturist and have spoken with a healer also. I have several guesses as to what could have caused this, but do not know where or how to narrow down the causes. My medical doctors are not concerned with the cause - and said that it was just " bad luck " that I have this condition. My medical doctors want for me to go on a program of 50mg of prednisone per day, and also immurane, which is an immune suppressant. He said that I would have to stay on the immurane for the rest of my life. My doctor told me that I needed to go on this program, or my liver would start to deteriorate at a faster rate. He basically told me that this was my only option. " -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
