He also prescribed Milk Thistle two to three times a day. That was years ago. I went over 7 years without watching my diet, I was drinking occasionally and I just started going to a Dr again. He had no clue what the disease even was, and has told me to not take Milk Thistle or even Vitamin E because it will cause my liver to have to much of a load on it. My labs showed my Ammonia levels to be 119, and he told me to take Lactulose, but for no reason to take Vitamin E or Milk Thistle....
I forgot to tell you after you go to mayo clinic review of milk thistle you go to the site that says Milk Thistle and under that it has Mayo Clinic and it does give a web address
www.mayoclinic.com/health/silymarin/NS-patient-milkthistle/ I tried it and can't get there so it is easier to just do it like I said.
A lot of people swear by "milk Thistle extract" I've been taking it for 6 months - I feel better - but not cured. Elevated Enzymes can be anything from hepatitis to alcoholism to "nash" to etc....- Ive even heard mononucleosis can cause them to be elevated - as well as exposure to industrial chemicals /toxins. Whatd the doc say???
I am taking Vit E, Vit C and Milk thistle in addition to diet and exercise. Are there any other ways to prevent progression of disease? Is it possible to "reverse" or change to just NAFLD? What is life expectancy of someone with NASH? I also was hopeful before dx to have another child- would pregnancy affect NASH? Are there any good forum/support websites for someone with NASH or NAFLD?
I looked up fatty liver (I have that from hep c) and if its's not caused by hep c, dietary modification was the recommended treatment.
If I switch my diet to a low fat, no white carb diet, and continue with the L-Carnitine and also take Milk thistle (helps regenerate healthy liver growth), then I do much better. If I go totally RAW in my diet (only raw fruits and veggies and 12 nuts per day), I will have pain for a while, as it is getting used to spewing fats out of the liver, then no pain once it's back to normal.
You have a specific problem and nobody on this website is a medical professional. What I would suggest, if you haven't already done so, is, if you're able to travel and can pay for it, is to go to places that specialize in finding answers to difficult conditions. You've probably heard of some of them -- John's Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic and many top university hospitals -- made their reputation by going deeper than the average docs do, even the average specialists.
t have a fatty liver, but more of a scarred liver. He is being put on an experimental thing involving Milk Thistle in large quantities at a hospital in Philadelphia. Milk Thistle is supposed to help cleanse the liver, maybe talk to your doctor about it, and speak with someone specializing in hep c who knows all the ins and outs.
NASH, NAFLD, ARE ASSOCIATED WTH LIVER INFLAMMATION, but are normally caused by obesity, or diets high in bad fats, if you were a drinker it is a great chance that alcohol was your enemy, refrain from alcohol eat healthier fats like olive oils, avoid fad diets, and your chances of no futher problems greatly increase, try milk thistle great for liver health, you can find it at pharmacy, research it on. american liver foundation, you''ll be fine!!!!
We do have the right to express our opinions, with a few exceptions, health matters being one of them, that arena needs peer reviewed science. Did I miss something regarding milk thistle? The main point seems to be milk thistle "walls" off the live preventing it from doing its job.
I am planning on going back to get another blood test soon, however, wanted to share with the group that I started taking Milk Thistle about three weeks ago to see whether this might help lower my enzyme levels to normal. What I have been finding is that I no longer need to take the prilosec or zantac, there is something (or appears to be something) in the Milk Thistle that is both helping me feel better as well as well as lowering my need for prilosec or other antacids.
I was diagnosed with Hep-c and Cirrhosis on Jan.5th 2015.....both Chronic ? My viral load is 676 , my meld score is 12....I have no idea what any of this means ? I'm 54 years old !

He informed me he knows absolutely nothing about liver disease's etc.
