Hi: Your situation sounds eerily similar to mine. I have Sjogren's and have all the
symptoms of auto-immune hepatitis and primary biliary cirrhosis.
Was your condition confirmed by biopsy?? What exactly is the treatment for PBC?
Is your iron level normal? Your enzyme levels OK? (My ALT & AST are elevated
and my iron level is 471...........so my liver is really inflammed.) I take no meds
and have never drank or smoked. The dr. is running the test for genetic
hemochromatosis.

My dr. told me to take Milk Thistle (an herb that stimulates healing
in the liver) and also beets (the vegetable) is supposed to be good
for the liver. Hope this helps.
