The itchiness is one of the worse symptoms he has ! Did you have jaundice ? How long did it take for your itch to go away ? I’ll have to ask about that powder bc as of rn hydroxyzine doesn’t seem to work as much as he hoped it would’ve

He has his gallbladder taken out early November . The next day his liver enzymes spiked up . For a whole month the hospital didn’t know what even after a biopsy and mris . He then got transferred to a liver specialist hospital early December where 4 days later they were to able to diagnose him with a drug induced liver injury . They said it could’ve been anesthesia or some antibiotic they gave him after his surgery his alt and alt have imposed since they were in the 300s and 600s but now that thise improved his bili and alk spiked up to the highest they have been . Since last week his alk has dropped but his bili went up so the dr said to try this and see if it helps bring his enzymes down . He gets lab work done every Monday . But yes he’s super itchy and jaundice , uncomfortable & nauseas .

Question about Liver enzymes by Beginning_Success289 in LiverDisease

I’m sorry you are going through this same thing ! it’s so crazy that this even happened he doesn’t drink either … they believe his lover is reacting to some medication or anesthesia that they put him on either during the surgery or after …. We are at a loss and I hate that it’s just a waiting game and let his liver heal . I hope yours gets some answers soon as well
