    I didn’t know there was an Autoimmune Hepatitis Association! I was diagnosed last year thru a liver biopsy that was done while they went in to remove my gallbladder and unfortunately I already have advanced cirrhosis. Honestly I didn’t even know there were any treatment options. I also have ITP and Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, which is terminal. I worry for my twin...they are closely monitoring her but she has the opposite issue with clotting that I do...she has overproduction of platelets and has to take blood thinners to prevent clots. We joke that something must have gotten mixed up in the womb.

    What about people that have no family history, but were in the medical field and have had vaccinations for hep A, B and C? Would that cause an autoimmune disorder in the liver to happen? It’s the only thing that would apply to me

    I am following AIHA channel from few days and glad to know about the AIHA. I got diagnosed for AIH and now getting treatment (Steroids & Immunosuppressants and few supplements). Got few queries : * I heard one of Gastroenterologist there is no cure. * Hepatologist says Its HLH (Hemophagocytic LymphoHistiocytosis)
