I started almost a year ago with this diagnosis, unfortunately. I had biopsies in February to confirm cirrhosis.
Collagen, and
Actos
. Was hoping for lower number, but progress is progress! Down to NASH 3 and 33% of my liver. Not sure what the numbers on the right mean?? I weigh 125 now, not sure I could lose anymore??

Updates/Questions
I have taken a low dose
Actos
for the last 6 months and am anxious to see if my Nash score comes down. My doctor mentioned a new diabetic drug that is out that is supposed to work better on fatty liver than the
Actos
, but I can’t remember what it was.

Improvements from F4 to F3!!! Success story (well kind of😉)
BUT… my doctor added
Actos
to my list. (Definitely not saying this is the reason), but I went to Columbus Monday to join a trial and my new scan put me at 10.5 and 260 - so finally lowered me to an F3! Although I have cirrhosis, my 260 number was too low to qualify.

Help please - confused
My doctor just put me on
actos
, even though my sugar levels are normal. I had been on 1000 mg of metformin daily and it apparently is bad for this. Supposedly the
actos
is good for fatty liver?

Will Doctors Prescribe Pioglitazone (Actos)For NASH
I having no luck getting any physician to prescribe
Actos
for NASH and wondering the response others have received. I keep getting that
Actos
really isn’t prescribe anymore, too risky, or they just don’t believe in providing any medicines for NASH.

Cirrhosis makes me sleep all day & night -- any remedies?
I take a number of drugs for my cirrhosis, including diabetic drugs such as metformin, Victoza, and
Actos
. I take a little bit of nadalol (20mg/day) to keep my varices small. I recently had a series of iron infusions.

Need a Opinion
Now I am taking all except
Actos
( due to its warning side effects) . Is it safe to get into insulin rather than taking all this tablets to reduce my HBA1c adverse condition.

FBS not under control.
I cut off 2MG AMARYL, 30 MG
ACTOS
from my night medicine. My FBS gradually kept increasing and now in the range of 170-180. My random checks are fine ( between 110- 140). Feeling very sad and perhaps I have to start my meds again along with lchf. Any good suggestion to control FBS?

IS ACTOS CAUSES CANCER?
Hai all One Doctor advised that
ACTOS
is very important for diabettic patient and prescribed it. I consumed it for 2 years. When I shifted from Dubai to Abu dhabi the Abu Dhabi Doctor prescribed it for the first 3-4 months. Then he stopped to prescribe.
