I did receive it, thank you very much. I like that you noted

anything significant at the bottom. And, it looks like your panels are showing

steady improvement which is great. Thanks again, it was helpful to do a

comparison.

They don't track cancer markers any more.. I suppose if the PSC were to

come back they'd probably start again, but I haven't had any since the

transplant. They varied a lot before the transplant. CA19-9 had a

high of 165, and Alpha Fetoprotein had a high of 4.8.

I've posted an Excel file with all my labs pretransplant on the files

section.

athan,

Thank you for sharing your numbers with us. I’ve

found it very helpful and it has eased my anxiety about where I am right now a

little bit. It’s especially helpful since you are not “on the

other side” with receiving a transplant and we can see how things ramped

up there just before TX. It gives me hope that I may have many years

ahead before I need my TX – if labwork mapping is any indication.

If I may ask (and please don’t feel obligated this might be too

personal), what happened in 1991? It looks like your liver panels were

quite high there and then returned to a more normal level within 6

months. Was this when you were first diagnosed? And, were you put

on any treatment at that time?

In '91 I'd been having what turned out to be gallbladder problems for a

while. I ended up with a bad blockage, likely due to a stone. They

suspected PSC, because of a history of UC in my family and because I

didn't fit the demographic for gallstones. It turned out that the

gallstones were cause by the PSC. The blockage cleared on it's own the

day before my first ERCP.
