Auto-Immune Disease - Liver

Hi. I am under a Dermatologist because I am on Biological Drugs (injections) for Psoriasis.  Have been using these now for nearly 4 years, during this time my LFT blood tests have been steadily rising.  My Dermatologist sent me for a Fibroscan and the results showed I have got Fibrosis - so, I was referred to see a Liver Specialist, I have got an appointment to see the Liver Specialist in June.  I have blood tests done every 3 months to check on my LFT and my Ferritin Levels (I'm Aneamic also) just recently had a blood test on Monday and now got to have my LFT 're-done because it indicated it was 'Abnormal'.  What I would like to know is:  What is Fibrosis? And can it be treated? If so, by what method?  Thank You in advance.

Fibrosis is liver damage, the liver can fuction, is it starts to stuggle,Ferritn is your do do with your Iron stores. I have srevere liver diease & adomas,which are non cancerous tumors. I to have problems with Anemia, & have had to have Iron infusions,same as blood tansfusions, but only the Iron,LFT is liver fuction, the test checks how well your liver is working, I know all this from reserching my conditon,my Gp is good & explains anything I don"t understand. The british liver trust is a good website to used or any NHS websites. Please be careful as you don"t want to scare yourself, I know how your mind can go over board! Not sure how Fibrosis is treated, I think it is Just monited. I hope I have been some helped! It is very scarey! Do you get pain after food? coz I do, I have to take tramdol & sometimes Morphine if is really bad  it is always worse in the eveing & sometimes starts without food in the late afternoon! I haven"t been able to get much information on this!  Mapleleaf I am not sure what your condtion is,something to do with your imume system, have a look on the British liver trust website,it find the site quite helpful. 

Since my last posting on 5/3/16. Have had Abdominal Ultrasound Scan - they found a "Blockage" to my Liver Artery, so had a MRI Liver Scan with Contrast - and now I am told No Blockage to Liver Artery, however I am now to have A Liver Biopsy Procedure - just waiting for the appointment. When I questioned Liver Specialist about the "blockage" to the Liver Artery his reply was it was the way my Anatomy is that showed up a Blockage. OK, so why? Am I having to have a Liver Biopsy? Also been put on Diuretics because I have Ascites now = fluid collecting in my Abdoman as well as Odema in my legs = wonder why?  Any advice would be welcome. Thanks.

Hi. Had a Liver Biopsy 3 weeks ago, and went to see the Liver Specialist last week to get my diagnosis.  I have Fibrosis (scarring) of the Liver and NAFLD. The scarring is there to stay but I can halt it from getting worse and the NAFLD = Well, told to follow a Low Fat, Low Sugar and Low Salt Diet, loose another 1 stone in weight (only weigh 13 stone exact at the moment). A fellow member on a Diabetic Forum took Milk Thistle tablets for 6 months and cleared his NAFLD, so I began taking the tablets 4 days ago and started my low fat diet. Watch this space......
