Hi ,

Thats what my biopsy said. No scarring, fibrosis, just

mild inflammation in the portal tracts. Apparently,

thats where inflammation starts with AIH. Mine was

more specific saying that it was in the triads, which

I guess is in the portal tracts. Anyone, correct me if

im wrong. My ANA is 1:320 and smooth muscle 1:160

whats your smooth muscle and symptoms, if any?

Hi all,

I wonder if that was what happened to my Dad. Almost thirty years ago my

Dad collapsed at work, then started throwing up blood. Doctors operated and

said he had multiple bleeding ulcers. They could not stop the bleeding and

he was gone about 3 weeks later.

Mine also showed portal inflammation and scaring (or is it scarring?). I

haven't been diagnosed yet- so I wish I knew what it meant too.....

I had problems with varices. Shortly after I was diagnosed I started

having problems with severe anemia. I was to the point one time of

being so anemic that I was having small heart attacks. My doctors could

not figure out why my blood kept disapearing. they looked everywhere

for the cause. they would give me blood transfusions and then I would

be ok for about 3 months and then all of the sudden I would drop from

hemoglobin counts of 12.5 to between 4 and 7 in a matter of two weeks.

finally they discovered the varices and started banding. I was banded 4

times over the course of the year and I have not had to have any in

about a year. By the way, I finally had to go to another doctor(they

wanted me to go to the mayo clinic in Rochester-but I found one closer

to home)the other doctor is the one that determined that the varices

was the cause of my severe anemia.
